Presenting,

Compliment Garden!


The rules are simple and easy- all you have to do is tag people who you appreciate on this platform and give them an honest, genuine compliment to make their day!

I’ll start!


@VerseArt You've always been kind to me, and I see you doing lot of good to the community!

@Clarisse29 Thanks for giving me the idea of Compliment Garden from your post here. You even encouraged me to start this thread where anyone on cups can compliment any fellow on cups any day and time! Thanks for being sweet and supportive.




If you wish to send a heartfelt appreciation for yourself or a peer on 7cups, you can use the Peer Appreciation Form as well. (Yes, you can appreciate anonymously also) ❤

Hi, Vase!

I send you my wishes that things get better soon.

You are one of the best persons I know in Cups, and among the very few most consistently supportive.

I hope that at least some of the massive support you give bounces back to you when you need it.

All the best to you!

Marcelo.

Thanks so much. My father isn't well and lots of the decision making and reporting falls on me. My immediate family is good though in terms of support. But the stress is hard to manage and I am reminded much more frequently than usual that mental issues never completely die out. But I am trying. Just exhausted. @HealingTalk

@bestVase7265

How good that your family is so supportive!

You are right that even when we get better and better, some fragility might remain dormant deep inside, and reveal itself under too much pressure.

Moreover, as Von Clausewitz put it, in circumstances of great pressure and stress "everything might seem very simple, but the simplest thing becomes difficult. These difficulties accumulate and produce a friction which no one can imagine who has not experienced it. Through the influence of an infinity of petty circumstances, which cannot properly be described on paper, things disappoint us, and we fall short of the mark."

Thankfully, you are wise enough to prioritize caring for yourself. Do it even at the expense of some imperfection in the accomplishment of the duties at hand. It's better to stay afloat and keep going at the price of some imperfection than to burn out and compromise your whole efforts attempting to be everything and do everything "right".

Embrace imperfection, give yourself permission to relax, take breaks, and have some "me" moments to recharge. You might also consider going "On Break" here.

I wish you that you find some moments of tranquility, some distractions to relax, and some opportunities to recharge, before going back to the daily struggles.

All the best possible in these challenging times!

Take good care of yourself!

You fully deserve it!

I am really, really bad about slowing down enough to embrace self care. So I am at very high risk for burn out because it is hard for me to tell when I am giving too much of myself. I also have extreme guilt when I don't keep up with normal activities which are many.

Normally being on here helps me heal because I am helping others. But I have no idea right now if even this is stretching me too thin. @HealingTalk

HealingTalk July 1st, 2023
I like to think in terms of "Sharpening your Saw" The last of Stephen Covey's "7 Habits of Highly Effective People".

In the book, he tells the story of a lumberjack who is exhausted from cutting trees non-stop. A veteran one comes and asks him "Why don't you take a break now and then and sharpen your saw? This way you won't burn out and will do more with less effort." The first one answers: "Can't you see? I am too busy cutting trees to waste my time on that!"

The 7th Habit: Sharpen your Saw https://youtu.be/ip0f03VlYp0

Another idea I like is that of "Procrastinate On Purpose", having a longer-term view of the use of time
https://youtu.be/y2X7c9TUQJ8 Doing things that might seem a waste of time now, but which "create" more time in the future.
Like accepting some imperfection in the present, in the current work, to devote some time for self-care (mechanical engineers call it "preventive maintenance") gets the best results over time.

I hope you like them too @bestVase7265

Thanks. It is a really rough summer. In addition to moving my dad into assisted living, our neighbor made us get rid of a beautiful tree in our yard so that he could put in a cement driveway. I have been weeping for several days. @MeaningfulSilence

Hi Vase, I don't know if you remember me but a couple years ago when I was at my lowest low you helped me get back on my feet.

I just read that you're going through some struggles and I'm really sorry to hear that. I wish you all of the strength and hope you gave me and so many others with your unselfish and consistently kind words of wisdom and encouragement.

I'm still here on 7 cups (in a better way) because of the footings you help me establish. Thank you so very much and I hope your struggles lessen as the days pass.💚

bestVase7265 June 30th, 2023

Of course I remember you. I am glad that you continue to do well.

My father's health is not well and it is quite stressful and causing family friction. So I am pretty exhausted at this point. Hopefully it will even out a little soon. @IsayUncle

In life, we meet various people. We see so many people. We connect with lots of people.

Some were passing by. Some were looking for support. Some were offering help. Some were showing kindness. They're leaving immeasurable legacy; sharing precious moments and lessons for us to hold and cherish.


A 'small' nod to greet the neighbour,

A few seconds to hold a door for a stranger,

A little bag of treats for stray cats / dogs,

A short text to some friends,

A phone call to relatives.


These 'simple' or 'small' things we do might be a reason to lift someone's up.


A lonely neighbour may feel less alone

A stranger may realize that someone did care about them

Some cats / dogs may be able to feed their kitten / pups

A friend / family may know that someone was thinking about them.


I'd like taking this moment to compliment each one of you (including you who's reading this). I hope that by planting some seeds of gratitude in this Garden; it may be worthwhile for many -- to enjoy the fruits and sharing it with many more.

Your 'small' and 'simple' gestures were so heart-warming and inspiring.

Realize or not, you're imprinting legacy and I am one among many people whom grateful to cross path with you.

Thank you for allowing me to learn so many invaluable lessons from you.

#2 For coming up with the most thoughtful words to start with, like sure, crying already?!

You are spot on, none of this is "little", little becomes a lot with genuine intent and thought, and its these beautiful gestures that bring hope to the world, that light up the universe with glimmering eyes and adorable smiles!

#4 For making soooo many spectacular graphics for each one of us, personal to each one, I love how they have a strong resonance with us! 🥺

#5 For picking the perfect qualities for each one of us, to reitrate and reinforce the good we do!

That's really sad 😢

Sorry for all the issues you are facing.

Did the neighbor ask permission to cut the tree?

Where I live nobody can cut even a small tree and if the soil isn't of their property the municipality doesn't allow any tree to be cut....nor flowers can be taken. Not sure if over there it's the same but...ya... it's the bad thing that happened on top of everything.

For me, the garden, the backyard, is first and foremost a place to relax. I immediately decided that I'd hire a specialist, a gardener, who would come from time to time and take care of the plants and flowers. At this time I plan to relax under parasols for the garden, which I already bought at Cazaar. This online store was recommended to me because they have a really wide selection of garden and backyard products at affordable prices.
