All Aboard the Gratitude Express: Come In And Share Your Joyful Moments
☻Howdy Content Development and Marketing Community‼️☻
This is my final post for the Content and Development Marketing "5 forum posts" elective requirement. I wanted it to be a meaningful one. I brainstormed for quite a while and considered writing about Motivational Interviewing, especially since I’m taking a course on it. But after some reflection, I thought, "Nah, too boring, Souris‼ "
Yesterday, I was feeling overwhelmed with an outpouring of thanks. A mentee of mine sent me this message:
"Hi Petite, I want to let you know that I appreciate all that you are doing, not only for me but also for the 7Cups community. Because of what you are doing, lots of us are growing."
Wow! It was the most heartwarming message ever!
So today, grab your tea🫖, coffee☕️, or water💦 because we’re diving into something truly uplifting. Today, we’re going to talk about ❤︎GRATITUDE❤︎- it makes us feel better and spreads positivity all around. So let's celebrate what we are thankful for and ✨shine a light✨ on our Joyful Moments.
Here are THREE ways to Shine a Light on Your Joyful Moments:
1. Celebrate Your Wins- I am participating in a Fitness study with a research university and I was given a coach to help me along the way. Often times, I feel as if I haven't made any progress. And he reminds me, "Hey! However small, celebrate the things which brought you joy." So I challenge you, What are some things that made you 🙂smile🙃 recently?
2. Spotlight on People- If you didn't skip to this part, then you've read how grateful I felt reading my mentees comment to me. I gave them a Shout-Out🔊, didn't I? Give a shout-out to someone who has made a positive impact in your life. It can even be the waiter at your "go to restaurant" who always remembers your name. ☺︎
3. Memorable Photos- I love to stop and take photos when I go on hikes, sometimes it could be just a leaf🍃. I would stop to admire it. Do you have a snapshot which conveys a moment of joy? Post it here! If not share a GIF which makes you happy, [look for the wand🪄when you reply to add on a GIF].
To Get Us Started, Here is My Gratitude List:
Im super grateful for the rainy days we have been having in my neck of the woods. I got the opportunity to spend countless hours watching the hummingbirds in my backyard fight over feeders.
☻
Shout-out to you‼️ Yes, you‼️
You have been reading my posts and participating. Your kindness didn't go unnoticed. I planned this entire post with you in mind.
Thank you so much for supporting me❣️
☻
I am thankful for moments I get to spend in nature: this tree looks like it's practicing yoga. You can't see from this view, but it has "two legs". I like to imagine it is in 🐍cobra🐍 pose.
❤︎
Now it's your turn! Shine a Light on Your Joyful Moments!
What is making you grateful today?
Im ready, with my cup🍵 of ginger🫚 and pineapple tea🍍, to read all your posts!

Hello! Today, I am forever grateful for my friends!

@PetiteSouris
Today, I'm most grateful for visiting the library. The quiet, the smell of books, and the endless rows of knowledge felt like home to me. It's crazy how much I love books; they are my escape, my adventure, and my solace all in one, my everything. I actually cried when I saw so many books lol—happy tears, of course. I can't control myself and my emotions around books. This is how much they have control over me and how much I love them. Being surrounded by so many stories and possibilities made me feel so alive and excited. It's like I got my home, my family, and my comfort all in one place.
Here a pic too-
@Gargi07 that’s nice. What shops that? Is it UK? I like reading too. Like books. Know the feeling. It’s nice to have good book. Many.
@TreaureSeekers3
Hehe yeahhh frr and no it's not uk it's India
@Gargi07
Hey Twin‼ Books are everything‼
[This is a photo I took sometime this year, of me starting the day with my gratitude journal, at the library]

@peachDay8184
📢Big Shout-out to your family and friends📢
Wishing you all many happy times together filled with infinite laughter‼
❤︎
@TreaureSeekers3 Cause I have been demolished. Publicaly humiliated. Treated like garbage. I don't have anything left. Nothing to look foreward to. I am ruined.
@Max100587
Hugs to you. Sorry that you were treated unfairly. Hope your situation gets better soon.Souris made such a lovely post for us, What is something for which you are grateful for today?
@Sicklescaler Nothing. I am so miserable. And there is no ways to solve my problem.
@Max100587
Pain sounds as if it's causing some discomfort and difficulty for you.
If you need to chat about it some more you can reach out to me or another listener in a PM.
🫂 Take Care till then 🫂

I am finally able to follow a routine. It was hard...so hard getting up and trying to live...yet, feeling better and hopeful recently. I am proud of myself for managing my emotions well...so happy my body and mind were around!
Someone who I should be grateful to should be the 10m Men's Air Rifle Winner→ Sheng LiHao. His composure and belief in himself made me passionate to finally challenge the biggest obstacle of my life...maybe this year...I might win.
A picture that I am grateful for... Was a click I captured in 2019. Simple picture... Just some clouds scattered all over and ready to pour... I had clicked that pic when things were quite messy for me... And I happened to have an internal fight with God... Yet, somehow after that picture... I felt peace. And surprisingly... The sky was never filled with massive clouds and it was a sunny day! I wonder how the camera captured such rainy clouds when it was nowhere in sight... I smiled after seeing it... Believing it to be one of God's miracles... It is a treasured picture of mine..I love you God!
@YouShallBeFine
I felt every word in your writing, beautiful storytelling and very creative. Maybe I am wrong, but I felt as if you are connected very well with your inner-self and ultimately with God. Such a blessing to have captured those ☁️clouds☁️ though they weren't there.
Shot out to Shang LiHao for inspiring you!!! Did he win an Olympic🏅 Gold? Now, I want to see him perform!!
Keep celebrating your wins! Having a routine is a big deal!!!
✨♡✨
Aah...yes. He won a gold in both- Mixed and Individual. In fact the first Gold of Olympics was his in the mixed 10 m Air Rifle. ð¥°
I am extremely grateful to have you as my listener ! Also I am grateful to be with my family and friends. I am grateful to for being healthy and I can practice my sport. I am grateful for the progress I’ve made with my mental health and the positive impact this community has on me
@Fifaadict123
Im proud of you, and all the great strides that you are making
Thank you for the compliment. It has made my entire day joyful!
Im smiling a lot, right now
