I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel like everything that’s on the Internet is basically depressing or worrying. It feels like you can’t turn on a computer or phone today without being bombarded by bad news. If you feel the same way, then you’re in luck! We have put together the perfect antidote to all that sad news: a collection of heartwarming, inspiring stories, from heroic kids to helpful animals to celebrities and individuals who are going out there and making a difference in the world. So if you could use a little pick me up, enjoy this list. And who knows? Maybe it’ll inspire you to go out and make a difference in the world yourself.

#1: Just Give It a Stir

Ladies all know that you can’t be too careful out there. It is a sad fact that when you’re out with strangers—or even people that you know—you always have to be vigilant, women in particular. And you especially have to be careful about leaving drinks unattended in case someone tries to slip something into them.

That’s why I love this idea! Four college students invented a way for you to tell if your drink has been tampered with just by sticking a painted nail into it. It’s a discreet way to keep yourself safe around strangers. And I love that it’s guys who invented it! Way to be good allies.
