CupsGiving-The PAT Edition!🥰

...See more Hey hey everyone, it's thaaaaatttt time of the year, and of course our lovely Peer Appreciation Program [https://www.7cups.com/forum/gratitude/AppreciationProgram_2310/PeerAppreciationProgram_262230/] had to step up!🥰 (For what?😮) For Thanksgiving. (duh!) While traditional festivities often center around enormous feasts with family and friends gathered around a table, we have the unique opportunity to adapt our celebrations for a virtual world, our beloved Cups-Space here. Thanksgiving, however one sees it, is mostly, I feel a joyful occasion that calls for gratitude, connection, and, most importantly, a genuine appreciation for the wonderful people in our lives. As we gather virtually on Cupsland, let’s celebrate the spirit of Thanksgiving by shining a light on one another and making this a joyous celebration of our friendships, support systems, love, kindness and the compassion we share.💛 So this year, let’s celebrate "Cups-giving"~ a delightful riff on Thanksgiving where we celebrate and "refill" each other's cups with positivity and gratitude. And what better way to do that than through words of appreciation? Because hey, a few kind words, and some genuine encouragement really does go a long long way.🥰 Each of us carries a unique cup filled with our emotions, experiences, efforts, and moments shared. The beauty of our community lies in the support and joy we bring to one another, yes(?). I believe, every interaction, every smile, every encouraging word, every kind act, every thoughtful gesture adds a drop to our collective cup~ the giant 7CupsCommunityCup that has every possible flavor brewed with love, and garnished with kindness!💛 ------------------------- I can really go on about the Spirit of Thanksgiving, the Importance of Gratitude and my Excitement to see the Appreciations flowing in, but we got to do this early, so the notes can be delivered *this* year 😂 and therefore, without further yapping, to kick things off, here are some fun and heartfelt prompts for you to spread joy and appreciation around.💛 (I think I already did half the work here for you 😛) All there's left now is to truly embrace the spirit of gratitude within and make someone's day with a heartfelt message!🥰 ⭐ [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScsCXyPYjQ4dsfLMh2ZzXC4of1lEutJsSasbkzc6JLDq7b8ow/formResponse] Send a thank you message to a listener here.

It’s a win-win, yeah?! (I'd like to believe the reward is an "extra" here, like a bonus for your time and love, but in all honesty, just realizing you've made someone's day and made someone smile is worth every second spent in typing out a heart-warming message) Said everything but the most important thing? Where to send the note and where will we see it once posted? Oops yes, Click Me To Spread Joy [https://docs.google.com/forms/u/5/d/e/1FAIpQLScsCXyPYjQ4dsfLMh2ZzXC4of1lEutJsSasbkzc6JLDq7b8ow/viewform] (or the respective emoji you got) and the appreciations will be posted in the Peer Appreciation Program Thread [https://www.7cups.com/forum/gratitude/AppreciationProgram_2310/PeerAppreciationProgram_262230/] itself. Yes, you can fill out as many appreciations you want to, for as many people you want to express your gratitude to or want to send a little "I'm thinking of you this thanksgiving" note. Utilising as many prompts you like to, or even without!🥰 (Wanna join hands on the other side of the table and help us deliver these notes too?

Appreciate Your Forever #1 ❤
by Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Last post
 December 3rd
...See more Hey hey lovelies, I hope y'all are doing great. ❤ As a proud team member of the Peer Appreciation Program, I'm immensely excited to share this wonderful update with everyone. Our project has received lots of love from the community and has surely spread it hundredfold around lol, initially we came up with the idea of appreciating our peers, considering the fact, our community is huuuuge and filled with kind, compassionate, supportive, *inserts a million other adjectives to describe awesome people here* folks- it makes sense that when we see something good in others, we likely feel inspired by them and might even hope and try to imbibe their good qualities. Okay so appreciating people around is super cool, no doubts about that. Buttttt, what is equally cool? Brownie points if you guessed it lol, it is, *drum rolls* –--- Appreciating Ourselves. Yes, you heard that right, you humble being. :P Here's some food for thought- Not many people find it comfortable to appreciate themselves, for xyz reasons- no worries at all and definitely no judgment whatsoever, I understand how difficult it can be and I know it firsthand because I am one of you xD but but but, we try out so many different things, for once (or once again), we can certainly try being more kind to ourselves, expressing self love and as someone once said- saying good things about yourself with meaning is the best way to express self love and encourage thyself to continually work on becoming a better version. Something that I've experienced to create some positive impact is looking at oneself through an outside- non biased, non judgmental, accepting and kind perspective. Often we might not see ourselves as how someone else does, and chances are, we miss out on seeing and valuing the good in us. Now now, how sad would it be, to be awesome but unaware about your awesomeness— Let's Change That ~ One awesome quality to become aware of, at a time. How about we consider ourselves a peer too, and appreciate ourselves? This could be literally anything under the sun (the one that shines in the sky, yes 😛) Here's some examples of things you can submit the form for: ♡ Any and every good quality in yourself ♡ Any achievement you're proud of (and hey, getting outta bed when you don't feel like it *is* an achievement) ♡ Anything you like and appreciate in yourself physically (You got good hair? Tell us, also tell us the healthy hair secrets) ♡ Anything else about you, that makes you feel good and happy ♡ A letter to past "you" from current "you"- sharing how far you've come, Or ♡ A letter to future "you" from current "you"- sharing how you envision your future self ♡ A letter to current "you"- sharing something you'd really like to hear from someone ♡ Anything else I may have missed, but you'd like to appreciate yourself for Are we feeling pumped enough to appreciate ourselves and get that self love kick in? Yes or Yes (?) No further wait, appreciate your forever #1 aka *you* here [https://tinyurl.com/PeerAppreciation] (clickable). ❤ As always, feedback, and suggestions are more than welcome, feel free to share your thoughts with us. ❤

 November 7th
...See more Hi Community! Are you someone who loves to appreciate people? If you are one, you can now earn the Love Monster badge! What do I need to do to earn Love Monster? Every month, we have people at 7 Cups appreciating their favorite cuppers using our appreciation form -click me [https://forms.gle/QEni2At39ZMApELr6]. Starting this month, we will be awarding the Love Monster badge to the top appreciator of the month! In case the top appreciator already received Love Monster in one of the previous months, then the second top one gets it! Likewise, the third top one would get it if the top two already have the badge. And so on. Interesting? Fascinating? Let's get started! If you need to bookmark the appreciation form link to easily find it, here is the tiny URL of the appreciation form: https://tinyurl.com/PeerAppreciation Can't wait to witness all the smiles and good vibes that will be exchanged in the community through this initiative!

Think of this award as a way to acknowledge the long-term support provided by a listener.  Rules * Only members can nominate.  * One member can nominate up to 3 listeners every month * You can nominate the same listener once every 3 months if the person is still supporting you. It used to be only once! Who qualifies to be nominated? * Apart from the above instructions, the listener must not be a newbie (this indicates they have indeed provided long-term support).  Congratulations!! * EmotionsListener🌷 * TesonL🌷 * Hopefuloutlook🌷 * Kenzolena🌷 * Weallthesame🌷 * sereneMemory68🌷 * JDN04🌷🌷 * AlanaRainbow🌷 * SunShineAlwaysGrateful🌷 * MikeListens92🌷 * MiaMee🌷 * AnnaSilverberg🌷🌷 * LovesSprintCars🌷 * Ria🌷 @EmotionsListener @TesonL @Hopefuloutlook @Kenzolena @Weallthesame @sereneMemory68 @JDN04 @AlanaRainbow @SunShineAlwaysGrateful @MikeListens92 @MiaMee @AnnaSilverberg @LovesSprintCars @Ria Are you a member? You can nominate a listener for the tulip badge here.
