Celebrating Gratitude with 7 Cups This Thanksgiving

1 thing that cups has taught me is that I'm breaking down limits that people have put on me and recognizing that I am capable of anything I want to accomplish 😊😊😊

What has 7 Cups taught you to appreciate?

Something that cups has taught me to appreciate are the flaws. Everyone has problems, big or small but that is what makes us who we are. Some take longer time to solve, some lesser but after every night there is a day and after every sad day is a happy ending. 

What’s one lesson you are celebrating this year?

One lesson I want to celebrate is importance of self care. In this fast paced world, self care is really important. Health is important. Prioritizing it is important. 

What are you thankful for 7 Cups?

I am thankful to cups to make me generous and empathetic. I have become more human (if that makes sense) being here. Cups is a whole new loving world to be in

1. 7 Cups has taught me to appreciate every day more. To be grateful of my life and the blessings that I receive every day. 
2. One lesson is not to trust so much and so “blindly”. I am not really celebrating it but I am more aware now that people won’t act the way I do or be kind to me even if I am kind to them…
3. I am truly grateful that 7 Cups have been here when I’ve needed it the most! That I have found wonderful Humans that listen/read me and give me support and that “are with me” when I feel the loneliest

1.  7 Cups taught me to appreciate the fact that I am not alone in my struggles and there are people on these forums that listen and care.

2.  One lesson I am celebrating and trying my best not to do is compare myself with others.  That is something I struggle with.

3.  I am thankful for personal reasons for 7 Cups I probably wouldn't be here had I not signed up.

Yay, always a good moment to reflect on lessons and gratitude!🥰

What has 7 Cups taught you to appreciate?

Uncountable and explainable amount of things.

I feel, being here, when I see and hear the struggle stories of other people, it makes me feel inspired of how strong people really are, and also reminds me to count my blessings. 

Comparison is a thief of joy, they say and rightly so. Humans, I feel, are hardwired to compare only the good things, so and so people have so and so many things or are doing well in their life and then comparison sets in on how not-well we are doing in comparison to them but if we start to look for this perspective about the not-well things too, then it opens room for more acknowledgement of what we have and creates space for more gratitude in life. 

A quote by Hellen Keller to sum this up- "I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet."🌞

What’s one lesson you are celebrating this year?

To not let my current thoughts dictate my entire life.🌞
