Day 4: What are your hopes and dreams for the future?
Welcome to Reflection Week- Day 4 discussion,
I hope you are doing well. This post is part of the Group Support Event- Reflection Week with 7 Cups. This discussion is intended to explore gratitude and reflect on the positive aspects of our life experiences.
Let's join us and share your reflections on growth, resilience, and appreciation.

I think my hopes start with finishing school. I also dream of becoming a better person. I try to do something that helps with my growth each day (I'll usually take a walk, journal or volunteer). I don't have a specific goal in mind, but I know I want to improve in the future, so these are some of the steps I take.
@bubblegum1234 That is wonderful, bubble. You are on a really positive path of self-improvement. We believe in you and here to support you.
@ASilentObserver
I would like to be at peace and love myself, have friends and a job I like.
I'm trying to socialise everyday, even if only a little. I probably need to do more self-care and figure out what direction to take in my career.
@Beechie That is awesome, beachie. You are on a journey of self-discovery and growth, please know your every step is counting and we are all here with you to support.
@ASilentObserver
my hopes and dreams for the future are to maintain stability, positivity and wellness in all aspects of my life. in order to achieve this goal, i have to identify with what changes need to be made in my lifestyle and behavior, as well as identify with becoming a more responsible person.
@NewYorker11 it is wonderful that you are setting such positive and meaningful goals for yourself. While you take your small steps, please be patient and kind to yourself throughout this process. We believe in you.
@ASilentObserver
thanks so much for your encouraging words, this means alot to me! i am grateful for your support, and the support of the 7 Cups community as well!
Personally, I'm taking great and mighty steps towards becoming the kind of writer I've always wanted to be.
Whilst my hopes and dreams are not to write in particular but to effect a change in the mindset of the way people see themselves and the world around them, my current medium of doing so is through writing.
My hopes and dreams is to create as much awareness as I can to people of the unique beauty they possess and how much power they actually truly hold over themselves.
By God, I will do all these and more in this year.
@WeListenWeDontJudge You got this and you are on a powerful mission to make a real difference in the world.

@WeListenWeDontJudge I believe in you too!
I want to get better and make progress in my recovery. I continue to visit these websites and see my therapist.

@JMNDMG Thank you for your prayers and support, JMN. We are all here with you to listen to and support you.
My hopes and dreams. I'm not sure. I have difficulty hoping and dreaming for things. I'm so often finding myself faced with obstacles to basic things that I've largely given up on hopes and dreams for the future. I have difficulty believing anything will get better, even if I try. I still do, but there's only so much adversity one can face and a limit to how many people who lack consideration or empathy one can handle before it breaks a person. I'm more existing like an empty husk, trying to tell myself to not have ideals or expectations or ask anything of anyone, since it only creates more conflict, frustrating, and suffering for trying.
One of these days, I'll get out to make community connections. Maybe I could believe things will get better and find something to contribute to making it so. Otherwise, acceptance of life's futility under the current circumstances.
@Zeraphim I am sorry to hear Zera. You are going through a really tough time. I understand how it feels when you have faced so many obstacles and encountered a lack of consideration. It feels draining and discouraging but please know you have all of us here to support you. You are not alone in this.
@ASilentObserver my hopes for the future include being able to go to college, be able to live on my own with my autism and my adhd struggles, and to be able to know exactly how to love someone wholely and openmindedly.
It's sad. I don't really have any at this rate
@ASilentObserver
What are your hopes and dreams for the future?
think our biggest hope is to keep going on our healing journey. as feel that will help us be the best we can be. we also have dreamed for freedom from daily abuse. we have that now, but with that a dream of learning to live another way then what use to be our normal.
What steps are you taking to achieve them?
we been on self discovery and healing bt doing healing work it very hard a lot of the time.
we set goals to changes things we use to do within the abuse
we learned more about feelings, we still feel we have a long ways on learning and being able to talk about our feelings. giving them the label that fit them better too.
we movied away from ones that abused us.
we learned to set boundaries and still learning more about that too.
we learned more about what normal way of living is one of the big things was learning to talk not yell at others.
we set goals to learn what ways we think that not healthy and learn healthy ways to think.
think with that was learning that no one 100% at fault. that we when having issues with others share in part of the fault. this not talking about abuse, but even within that at times we do things that can make it worst.
so our hopes and dreams are mostly about learning better ways of living. dreams are to really keep on healing. this not for others but for us.
