Sometimes it feels like the Internet is full of depressing things: just a non-stop barrage of bad news, angry people, and cynicism. Some days it’s enough to make me want to delete all my social media accounts, throw my laptop in the garbage can, and move to a hut in the mountains to tend sheep and befriend small birds. And while I haven’t written off that idea completely yet, every now and then, I come across a little ray of sunshine online that changes my mind—an island of positivity and kindness that proves that not everything on the Internet is bad. And I want to share one such island of positivity with you: a series of wholesome, uplifting comics by a digital artist named Eckyo. Check out his work below and see if it doesn’t restore your faith in humanity, even a little.

#1: Today Is a Gift

Tell me if either of these situations sounds familiar to you: you are so worried about what is going to happen in the future that you cannot focus on what is happening now. Or you spend all of your time fretting over and regretting what happened in the past.

This sweet little comic is here to remind us that that’s no way to live happily in the here and now. Or, as Master Oogway and a thousand inspirational posters have said: “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.”
