Memes To Remind You That The World Isn’t All Bad: 1.
To gain more insight into this topic, we reached out to Alexia Nicole Diaconescu, who runs the Wholesome blog and Instagram account. Alexia was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda about what “wholesome” means to her, as well as what inspired her to start sharing content online.
“Wholesome means unapologetically seeking to radiate kindness and advocate for what is morally right,” the creator shared. “I was inspired to create my blog because I felt the need to nurture this yearning of expressing my intolerance of various catastrophic socioeconomic, environmental issues that various individuals of all backgrounds are victims of.”

“I especially wanted to raise awareness about issues that should no longer be stigmatized or considered taboo yet continue to divide and dehumanize us,” Alexia continued. “I decided to treat my blog as an informational diary, because I consider everything I write to be my unfiltered, raw soul.”
“To specify, when writing an article, I always conduct thorough research on each pertinent issue I will pursue. Then, I will provide my commentary stemming from my ethical frameworks, experiences, and emotional intelligence,” the creator shared. “My hope with my blog is to have a few individuals resonate with my blog’s aim of fostering a more just, equitable, compassionate, and safe society. Today, I have a community of like-minded, kind-hearted individuals from all over the world who want to make a positive impact and shed light upon various issues that must not be neglected.”

Alexia believes that surrounding ourselves with wholesome things enables us to remain grounded, grateful, and appreciative for everything life has to offer. “I also think it provides us with the opportunity to surround ourselves with people who are instinctively driven by the goal of being intentional, profound and meaningful throughout their lives,” she added.
“Thus, surrounding ourselves with wholesome things, memories, discourse, literature, music, art, etc. will nourish our personal growth, which will in turn stimulate our exposure to other wholesome moments, making us overall wholesome people. Moreover, we are more likely to live a happy life that we can look back on and reminisce on,” Alexia continued. “Nostalgia generated as a result of protecting peace, and being honest, good people who inspire others to live a tangibly meaningful life that is worth living.”

We also asked Alexia if she could share any advice for people who want to invite more wholesomeness into their lives. “Remain genuine and authentic to who you are. In an ever more increasingly suffocating and violent world, driven by selfishness and the need to sacrifice others for your benefit, kindness is scarce,” she noted. “Hence, I recommend treating all malpractice and ill intentioned voices as white noise.”
“You have to remember your values, why you need to uphold and protect them even in the face of adversity. You have to understand that not everyone wishes to seek more wholesome moments, and you shouldn’t let it deter you from fulfilling your goals,” the creator says. “Furthermore, surround yourself with people who aid you in making efforts to become a better person every day; enjoy the activities and hobbies that make your heart full and inspire you to treat every day with optimism, empathy, purpose, and a work ethic to manifest all your ambitions.”
