My therapist told me to find three things that bring me joy, and since it’s now dark at 5 p.m., I’ve been doing that from a heating pad, scrolling wholesome memes and crying at a fox. This is progress. Last year I was crying at a bank commercial, and that one was trying to sell me something. A fox wants nothing from me. I checked.
Even Death needs a hobby.

Enjoy it, buddy. It's usually a Tuesday thing.

I read the text, I said goodnight, then I read it again to be sure.

I'd like whatever that fox is having.

Nobody in history has studied this hard for a reason this nice.

I’m a big fan of the comics where someone apologizes and the other person yells that it’s not okay, then lifts them overhead out of pure love. I’ve wanted that from every relationship I’ve been in. Instead I get “No, you’re fine,” in a voice that’s filing paperwork. Wholesome comics have never once told me I’m fine, and that’s why I trust them.
The grandmothers are what get me, and I’d like everyone to stop showing me grandmothers. I’ve got heartwarming memes saved in a folder on my phone, and I open it in parking lots like a person checking on a small animal. I also text my friends to say I got home safe, even when nobody asked, and even when I’ve only gone to CVS. Someone should know.
I think people share these because being kind out loud is terrifying, and forwarding a picture of a sleeping fox is not. It’s a way of telling someone you hope they’re okay without having to hear the answer. That used to sound like a flaw to me. Now I send cute animal memes to my whole family, and I consider it a wellness check.
Somewhere a stranger is telling someone they have the same hair, and I’m going to need a minute.
I keep 29 Wholesome Memes And Pics For A Much-Needed Mood Reset on hand for emergencies, and 21 Happy Memes With Wholesome Vibes And Just Enough Hope for the emergencies after that. Both are free, which is more than I can say for my therapist.
