In Italy, they celebrate the Feast of Seven Fishes. Russians traditionally serve a 12-dish Christmas Eve Supper before opening gifts. Fruitcake is traditional for Christmas in the United Kingdom. The earliest recipe [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruitcake#History] from ancient Rome [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Rome] lists pomegranate [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomegranate] seeds, pine nuts [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine_nut], and raisins [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raisins] that were mixed into barley [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barley] mash. In the Middle Ages [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_Ages], honey [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey], spices [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spices], and preserved [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_preservation] fruits [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit] were added. * What would you care to share abouit holiday traditions that you have in your family? * What is the story behind that? * This year, do you follow the traditional customs or do you have your own holiday traditions now?

Day 21: Grateful for the Journey: Reflecting on 2024

7 Cups Online Therapy / by SoulfullyAButterfly

35 minutes ago

...See more Every year brings a mix of highs and lows, lessons learned, and memories made. While some moments may have challenged us, others reminded us of the beauty and joy life has to offer. Looking back, it’s not just about the big milestones but also the small victories and the ways we’ve grown. Gratitude for the journey doesn’t mean every moment was perfect; it means recognizing the value in each experience and the strength it took to get here. Finding Gratitude in the Year Gone By 2024 may have brought new opportunities, deepened relationships, or moments of personal growth. It might also have presented obstacles that required resilience and courage. Gratitude allows us to honor both - the triumphs and the struggles - acknowledging that each played a role in shaping who we are today. As you reflect on this year, think about the moments that made you smile, the people who stood by you, and the lessons that helped you grow. These reflections can remind us to celebrate not just the destination, but the journey itself. Looking Forward with Gratitude Gratitude for the past helps us step into the new year with clarity and hope. By appreciating what 2024 has taught us, we can carry those lessons forward and embrace what lies ahead with open hearts and minds. Reflective Questions * What are some moments from 2024 that you’re most grateful for, and why? * What challenges did you face this year, and how did they contribute to your personal growth? * As you look toward 2025, what lessons or habits from this year do you want to carry forward? Let’s take this time to share our reflections and gratitude for the journey of 2024. Whether it was a year of growth, healing, or new beginnings, every step was part of your unique path. This post is part of the 25 Days of Gratitude, Self-Care, and Personal Growth event at 7 Cups!

Let’s talk❤️

...See more What’s the Most Hurtful Thing Someone Has Ever Said to You? Let’s Laugh (and Cry) Together! Alright, folks, let’s stir things up a bit. I’m calling out those soul-crushing, jaw-dropping, “did they really just say that?” moments—the ones we still think about in the shower 10 years later, plotting our ultimate comeback. What’s the most hurtful thing someone’s ever said to you? I’ll start, because fair is fair. One time, someone looked me dead in the eyes and said: “You have the personality of an overcooked potato.” AN. OVERCOOKED. POTATO. Like, excuse me?! At least compare me to mashed potatoes or something versatile and comforting. But no, they went straight for the dry, flavorless insult that haunts me to this day. Or there’s my friend, who once got told by a teacher: “You’re the reason I drink.” The TEACHER. Imagine doing your homework and still being blamed for someone’s Merlot habit. But here’s the thing—those words hurt then, but now? Now we laugh about them (and also secretly hope karma got those people back). That’s the beauty of sharing these moments: they lose their power over you when you can throw a little humor at them and share them with people who get it. So, hit me with your stories. Let’s turn this into a group roast of the most ridiculous, hurtful things we’ve ever heard. You can go deep if you want, but even the small, dumb insults count—like that time someone said your new haircut made you look like a “vegetable emoji” (that one hurt a little, not gonna lie). And hey, if your story is truly wild, I’ll pin it as the Hall of Fame Hurtful Comment. So, let’s hear it: What’s the thing someone said to you that still makes you go, “WOW, okay, thanks for that”? Bonus points if it’s funny, weird, or just downright petty. Let’s keep it light, and maybe—just maybe—we’ll all feel a little better after laughing at the absurdity of it all. Alright, your turn—don’t leave me hanging! Btw i will post this in another forum just to reach more people.
