Good moments 🌈
hey everyone, i'm creating this space for myself to come to every day, hopefully, and share my good moments. ✨
when i say 'good moment', it doesn't mean i have to feel happy or anything. it could be anything that made me feel a tiny bit better or something that made me feel good for a little bit. it could even be something that happened that's supposed to be good, even if it didn't change how i feel. or if i'm having a particularly bad day, a good moment could be a moment when i just didn't feel that horrific. and of course, it could be a moment when i just somehow magically feel fine for a bit, with no apparent cause. magic, lol. 🪄
i've recently realised that thinking of good moments makes every day feel a tiny bit different, instead of every day feeling the same and having that school, homework, exam, eat, sleep, repeat cycle going on. when i'm depressed and have been for months on end, it's really easy to just see that and forget the good that does occasionally come. perhaps after a while of posting on this thread, i might even be able to go back and read previous good moments when i'm feeling awful.
i know that every time i try to feel better and actually get to feeling better, it eventually comes crashing down soon and i feel bad again. but i guess i'll try to feel better anyway by focusing on the good moments. and when i do get to feeling better, i want to make the best of it and use it to get work done, so that the times when it gets bad again don't affect my schoolwork too much.
i will really try to come here every day and post something, even if it's very small and seems insignificant, even if i feel like i didn't have anything good happen that day. and if i ever have a miracle day when i have a lot of good moments, i'll try my best to list them all out for me to read on the awful days that follow (somehow my really good days are always followed by some really bad ones, and it sucks). if i ever miss a day of posting, i will try to post that day's good moments the next day.
i know that sometimes i will need to mention the bad stuff too here, to be able to explain why something was a good moment, but in general, i will try my best to avoid talking too much about the bad on this thread.
thank you, @bestVase7265, for encouraging me to write down my good moments. this idea of yours has been of a lot of help to me. i hope it works well with this thread for posting good moments. feel free to follow along and read whatever good i find every day, and share yours too (only if you'd like to, of course. you can always just stick to our space if you wish). 🤍🤍
anyone else reading this is welcome to share their good moments as well, i'd love to hear them. wishing you all the best. 💙
Hey Berry ✨ I just found out you have the similar thread to, I am glad I found it too 😃
See you there❤️
@exuberantTalker9747 hey talker, nice to see you here haha. and nice to see you finding your good moments and writing them in your thread. i hope it helps you feel a bit better. 💙
by the way, off topic, but i hope you're doing okay with those thoughts. i noticed the thread you recently posted, asking what makes those thoughts occur, got deleted. i hope you know that's just cups being cups, but we're still here for you. i'm hoping the pain isn't too much right now. *sending strength* 💙
Hey thankyou berry for being here. I am doing better now I was feeling those thoughts recently so I just write it on post but I didn't want to make it look so big. But yeah the cup's forum head did texted me before deleting it and I didn't want to make anyone feel triggered to see that thread so I told them it will be fine.
But I appreciate your support and thanks for the strength ❤️ hugs to you
tuesday (5th nov): i had this weird desire to shower today right when i woke up (generally i shower in the afternoons) and it went pretty well hehe and i felt so good for a bit. especially since my mother was nice for 2 minutes.
so i had to work on the rest of the files that i had to clear up from that computer and i came across a beautiful video that i made put together when i was 10 years old - by singing some of my favourite songs at the time, filming some little clips of myself acting, and editing it all into a story. i cant believe i did all that at that age. it's beautiful seeing it now. i mean the storyline is so funny and shows how i used to imagine so weird unrealistic things.
it's all good except for the fact that the video is all in pieces in the video editor and if i wanna save it, i'll have to take the clips and edit it all over again. i guess i'll go that over some weekend after i catch up with schoolwork? i dunno but yeah, good watching my 10 year old self and her pretty nice singing, acting and editing lol. i remember i did it all by myself for my mother's birthday in 2020.
i saw something lovely on cups that made me feel better and a little more hopeful.
when my father came home today he was in a good mood and talked to me a bit, and it made me feel better.
my parents and i went bicycling today on a nearby hill road and the downhill rides were fun. the uphill ones sucked though and made me so tired but never mind.
okay that's all i have because i feel horrible right now because i haven't done any schoolwork today so even if i've had any more good moments they have flown out of my memory.
okay, i got something to add. i cried, cried a lot. and i feel much better now. i'll sleep now and hopefully get things done tomorrow. gotta remind myself that one day or 24 hours, even less than 24 hours is actually a lot of time to do everything i need if i use the time wisely. hopefullt this will help.
i forgot to mention one lovely moment from yesterday. i heard my father researching about matresses. so since has started, it means i might get a new matress sometime soon. i'd really appreciate one, my current matress is so hard and uncomfy and i really long to have a comfy bed like the one i used to have a few years ago. and perhaps a more comfortable bed will encourage me to get into it on time. also, i feel like the way i tried convincing my father about a new matress worked lol.

just realised i spelled it wrong so many times. like i saw it and something felt off with the spelling so i had to check and i did spell it wrong...
The video sounds great and it is good that your dad said something nice and you got out biking. Every time you make the effort to write such things down it helps. @exuberantBlackberry9105
@exuberantBlackberry9105 ... Yes, and there is power in looking at the WOW in small things. Each moment - Wow - the fact that we can breath and see so many magnificent things. The fact that we have internet or electricity. We can learn and read! Those are amazing. Or just the wow of the sky that is a beautiful and endless picture for us each day. There is beauty so much!
@practicalOrange7572 you might be really right. but when we're struggling and we're already used to stuff like having internet and electricity, learning and reading, it doesn't necessarily help to try and think of. if it helps you, that's awesome though! it's good to hear that you believe there is a lot of beauty around us, i'm sure that the belief helps a lot. i'm glad you can see things this way! sadly, i can't, i feel differently, and i think our experiences in this world affect how much beauty we can really see. but i'm super happy for you. ❤️
