Sounds like whilst i was gone, this place has gone quiet. Im back now! You all will get more of me!

Day 15

Time zones are different so you may or may not be ahead of me! But i want you to read this.

Today is positive self-affirmations. I have to tell you all something. I want you to do something for me. I know its hard to love ourselves, to truly hold ourselves together, to actually say from our heart "I love myself". I know its hard to say something good about ourselves because our brain says "self doubt" or something negative may come into mind. This is normal. Its okay.

Its okay to feel the way you feel. Your feelings are always valid. Our brain is almost hardwired into believing, into understanding, to processing negative words other people say or to just doubt ourselves. Nowadays, I do not push people to love themselves anymore. Because I know this is a journey. This takes time to truly understand ourselves.

Moving on, I feel the Peer Appreciation Programme was part of my self-love journey. It may be part of yours too. I learnt that people do appreciate me and they don't appreciate me for the sake of appreciating me, they do it because they care. Because they recognise something about me or you. People don't fill in the form for the sake of it. They do it because they care and they want you to know how wonderful you are.

They want you to know that you can be amazing, you can be the person you want to be, not what others want you or force you to be. So be the person you want to be. Be the person who you want to see inside of you. Because your inner self is important.

I hear lots of "you appreciate me for no reason" , " i don't know why i deserve this", "I am not worthy". And I do this. I know I do it because someone stops me. Makes me thing about what I said to myself *wink wink*. But appreciation only comes from our heart, and sometimes we have to accept ourselves.

I cannot tell you how passionate I am to spread a message like this.

Its okay to be different.

So I leave my self-affirmations for myself. If your having a hard time doubting yourself use mine because you mean the world to so many people:

I matter. My thoughts are valid. my feelings are valid. I become a better person everyday.

I can get through this. I won't give up. I will keep fighting.

I am a warrior. A survivour. I am beautiful. I am brave.

I am beautiful. My body is beautiful. My voice is beautiful. My words are beautiful.

I am brave. I can speak out. I am brave because I can truly be myself.

When I cannot be myself, I can overcome my problems.

I can overvcome fears. Hatred.

I am truly myself.

I am proud. of myself.

Embrace the moment.

A good idea:

I dont know this is a random idea i wanna share. It actually helps me.

Someone from the teen's side taught me this actually, but I can't remember when.

Put your hands to your heart.

We feel a bit of beating sometimes. The way our heart pumps out blood and oxygen to the body.

Now listen to this:

Every time your heart beats, its something special. Thats how important you are. That you are here. Breathing. You deserve to be here. To exist. To feel the moment. You matter.

Day 16

I am exhausted today. Mentally and physically.

But I will tell you all something when our mind and body are not at rest, we can never do anything properly. We can't think properly. Sometimes we feel restless at times of stress and overload. So relax. Deep breaths. In and out. Sometimes we run away from looking after ourselves.

We run away from sleep, from just giving ourselves a bit of rest. Sometimes I stare out of a window to relax. Something beautiful is always out there. But you come first.

So take a few moments to relax. Breathe in and out. And hold in the moment. We take this 1 step at a time.

Enjoy the moment.

Give yourself some love <3

Day 18

Inspirational Quotes are something I am obsessed with for years! I literally love all of them!

Fun fact: Most of my poems and writing ideas are somehow from a quote Idk if you all notice😭

But oh well, today's idea on the calendar is that you can share or just find quotes you love that give you a smile or you may just like the quote you have chosen! It's so hard to pick 1 but you can post multiple. Then again, if you don't want to post thats up to you!❤️ Here is a quote for you lovely people!

Text on image: "Be kind to your body, gentle with your mind and patient with your heart. Stay true to your spirit, cherish your soul, and never doubt yourself. You are still becoming, my love, and there is no one more deserving of the nurturing grace of your love" Becca Lee

Love you all❤️🌷

take care of yourselves!

Day 21

Express yourself.

Growing up in a traumatic childhood, expressing myself was the most important component of my life.

It changed my life. It started with a diary and then it became the world for me. Today I post my poetry

on 7cups because expressing myself makes me feel better. It makes me know how I feel.

And that my feelings are valid whatever I go through. You can express any emotion you like.

But it's still valid. Happy or sad or angry? That is okay. What you are feeling right now matters more

than you could think.

There are many ways to express yourself and of course, you don't have to do it here on 7cups, it

could just be talking to someone, singing, writing, music, art! Anything!

I will give an example myself:

If any of you have visited my little forums, I use poetry to express myself. Using words to understand.

Myself and how I feel.

Sometimes a few words can become a piece of artwork.

Do whats best for you. Take care of yourself. Stay being yourself.

Because thats what you're loved for the most.

Keep smiling! Keep spreading! Keep being!

So today...... I wanted to express my gratitude to have people like you all in my life! I know I wrote a poem for all you before, but no poem is enough to express how much i truly care about you all. so here it goes.

This poem has no name. But you can give it a name of your own. Because your beautiful heart, and your beautiful soul tell a story. Give that story a title. You're loved.

To lift me up when I was down.

Make me smile when I had a frown.

To find the right words.

To make me feel better.

But no words can tell....

My love.

My grateful heart.

How much I care.

No words can tell...

How amazing some people can simply be.

So let me remind you.

It's all cool.

it's okay to look after yourself.

It's okay not to be okay.

It's okay to be upset.

I remember the first day we all met.

And one day...

A journey crossed by....

In the world, I stood before.

But in the inner core....

I could see strength.

Love.

Beauty.

Kindness.

In each and every one of you.

Each heart is pure.

As pure as gold.

But when my heart became soft.

I found myself in this journey.

Stood before me.

WIth people like you.

The vivid colours.

The smiles.

The words with tender care.

Each of what you do...

Puts another smile on another face.

So dear human,

The love and the true bliss you brought into my life.

Is the power inside of you?

The love and true bliss you brought into my life.

Is one smile spread from one human to another.

The love and true bliss you brought into my life.

Is another life.

That I started from scratch.

The smiles, I smiled.

Will never be forgotten.

And there I was...

Standing in a rainbow of beautiful people.

Who spread smiles for joy.

May glory shine upon you.

May you be happy.

Thank you.

One thing I have learnt being part of the appreciation Programme is that love is never wasted. Its only a power on Earth that is a chain, a happy smiley chain!

No gift is enough to tell you all, what beautiful humans you are.
