What is “Heartwarming” here?

The Gentle Light has an original category called “Heartwarming.” It’s a shelf for finding gentle moments in the news.

We don’t just look for “positive” stories—we use our own evaluation to prioritize real-world kindness, support, and human connection. Even on a busy day, we hope it gives you a small sense of relief.
