50 People Are Sharing The Most Wholesome Things They Have Seen

A little boy at the airport kept trying to climb over a concrete divider that had active traffic on the other side. His mom was loaded with luggage and kept trying to stop him, but didn't have free hands.

My brother-in-law walked up and said "Hey kid. There's a rule here. You have to keep one foot on the ground at all times. Look around. Everyone has at least one foot on the ground."

The kid kept trying to climb, but with one foot firmly glued to the ground he wasn't in danger anymore. Such a creative and wholesome way to let the kid keep playing while keeping him safe!

When I talk to my mom on the phone, she’ll always stop mid sentence and say “hang on, dad wants to say hello.” He’ll just say “hiiii [nick name] I love you!” Chit chat for a couple minutes and that’s it. I know my parents love me, but my dad— that’s my buddy right there.

My sisters bfs band is just starting to get off the ground, their first "gig" was at my graduation party not too long ago, my dad paid each of them 50 when they thought they were doing it for free. Well, they recently did their first "gig gig" at this weird basement place. While they're waiting to start, doing last minute mic checks and tuning, one of the band members (bassist) is still chilling in the audience, because he can just walk up at any time really. Well suddenly the host walks up and announces the band name, and reminds everyone where the tip jar is. Suddenly, someone walks over and drops a couple coins in, then another person donates some more cash, then another person does pretty much back to back! I look over and the bassist is crying, and walks to the bathroom I guess to pull himself together. I teared up thinking about how touched he was by the sight of people supporting the band. They did amazing that night, had the place going crazy!

There's a couple who look like they have to be in their eighties I see almost every Saturday morning when I go to the mall to run my errands. They walk around together holding hands.

I went to go get a build a Bear with my friends because we’re literal children. We had picked our bears and we were waiting in line to get them stuffed when I look behind me and see a really old lady in a wheel chair holding a pink unicorn teddy. She had the biggest smile that made my heart melted, she saw me looking and gave me a huge grin and I gave her one back. Most. Wholesome. Thing. Ever.

There's this big buff body builder type guy who works at the gas station near my house. I was in a hurry so I had to buy cat food from that gas station. As he was ringing it up he starts gushing about owning two cats. It was so precious.

I was spending the night at my mom's house for Christmas. Her birthday is on the 25th and we usually go to a movie for it, so it was just easier for me to spend the night so we could go out the next day.

Anyway, it's about 2 am and I'm outside having a cigarette, when suddenly I hear one of the neighbors yelling, "What are you doing outside? Get your a** back in." Immediately after I hear a kid yell in protest, followed by, "Dad, I just wanted to see Santa land on the roof!!"

This kid snuck out of bed and out of the house at 2 in the morning when it was probably like 20 degrees Fahrenheit outside, just so he could see Santa. It was really adorable, and also pretty hilarious.

My 2 year old nephew giving his 4 month old sister (my neice) kisses constantly. He won't give anyone else kisses but her. He can barely even speak but clearly already loves his baby sister. It's so adorable.

There was this dog that would always lay in front of the house on the end of the street. I always had to walk by him in order to get to school. One day there was this group of kids walking home from school and they were ahead of me. I see them go up to the dog, open up their bag, and just dump a bunch of tennis balls next to the dog. As I walked passed them, I saw they were petting the dog.

I once saw a dog share a big treat with another dog

I was just walking around West Ed Malland this kid would not stop staring at me while he was hanging in his mom's arms. He was like 3 or 4 but he was the nost adorable child I have ever seen. This boy was so facinated just looking at me for some reason and it made me smile. Then when I smiled, he smiled to. A cute smile. I started to grin and then he grinned, and then I laughed and he laughed too. I had never seen that boy before in my life but hemade my day.

I saw something on Instagram where this girl found her little sister putting Skittles with her anti-depressants and when she asked why the little sister said "Skittles make me happy so I'm putting them with the thing that makes you happy to make you EXTRA happy" (it might have been a fake story but it was cute)

Seeing my 4 yr old nephew share his peanut butter sandwich with his friend at the playground.

I always get the shivers when I see a very dedicated parent. A few months ago I was on the train on my way to work, when a mother entered with her approx. 10 year old daughter, who was in a wheelchair. The girl would do nothing but talk, ask questions and narrate everything she did, leaving almost no chance for anyone (her mother) to participate in the conversation. I felt bad for the child, because it seemed as it was impossible for her to keep a thought to herself, yet whatever she said ended up as a monologue.

Her mother had very calm, pleasant and patient vibes. Not once did she judge or interrupt her daughter, while I was present. Whenever her daughter asked a question, she would answer it, not getting irritated by the fact that the girl would continue talking. Maybe she was listening after all. At times, the mother would encourage her daughter to elaborate certain thoughts and sometimes the girl did.

Seeing the athletes with down syndrome help each other cross the finish line during races absolutely always gets me and has to be the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

My family adopted a shelter dog and surprised me with it. The dog has had her fair sure of horrible owners. One of her owners just let her roam outdoors and she got hit by a car. He didn’t get caught though, because he said she escaped.

(She is not an escapee. We have a low fence and it does just fine)

When the dog came to our house for the first time I expected it to be scared. To my surprise she wasn’t. When she came home she was so happy to meet new people she grew attached to us almost immediately.

She licked our faces, let us pet her, the whole nine yards. She acted like a total puppy, and it turns out she’s a mom. We don’t know how old she is but she is an optimistic dog that loves everyone. The happiness to meet me (for the first time ever) instead of fear of a new place was the most wholesome thing, and 1,000 words couldn’t describe it.

Anything Mr. Rogers and I cry every time. That man was an angel.

Also once my mom was hanging with a friend of hers who just had a baby, and the baby was crying real bad. Mom took the baby and sung to him like she did with me when I was young. He calmed down and went to sleep immediately. The friend was like “I sing to him and it doesn’t work!! I wish I had your voice!”

So my mom is like a walking charity that can essentially do no harm. She has her flaws, but she does her best. Any-who, This is a story on how she shares things. Just this week, we were at the supermarket and she saw we had forgotten our plastic reusable bags, so I went to get them. When I came back and gave them to her, she took out two of the more expensive ones and gave them to this lady that was with her kid, and tbh, how she did it was so nice. She saw she didn’t have the budget to buy the bags (I guess) so she just gave them to her. And the lady was so grateful. Another time, she gave away a pendant to a girl with Down syndrome that I’m sure was expensive (I don’t keep track of what she buys but it was on the expensive side of the box that day) and the girl was so happy.

My son (18 months old) trying desperately to reach his brothers (11 months) high chair, pulling him over as close as they can get and sharing his smoothly pouch with him then patting him on the head. Both laughed and giggled.

The worlds not all bad folks, it just looks like it if your only looking in always dark places.

Yesterday, I witnessed a young student experience the emotional quality of finding joy in someone else’s personal accomplishment.
