Summary: A collection of cute and touching pictures to lift our moods.
Amidst the endless cruelty we call daily news, which, considering how often such fare is wholly divorced from anything touching our actual lives, would better be called world gossip, we find by way of psychological compensation the need for something transparently cute, innocent, wholesome, as a supplement and antidote. Hence we see in Facebook updates and email forwards this remedial tenderness expressing that smooth coo of sensitivity otherwise lacking.
Why not, after all? And the pictures bespeak those moods where, like the sick and dying we “love things just because,” remembering warm moments from our childhood, and endearing ourselves, as often we must, to the universe once again.
The cumulative effect of contemplating each picture, as you’ll soon rediscover, is the easing of tension in the heart, a breaking of the ice and return of warmth and deep breaths in an otherwise professional and business-focused demeanor. Holding such moments as an index can do more than alleviate the necessary firmness we must pose towards life each day: it can also serve to inspire us to change our touch and let us address life with our fingertips rather than our fists.
