Spread the Love: Community Shout-Outs

On my! Had I known this thread existed, I would have been sending shoutouts at the top of my lungs to SO many valuable members of the 7 Cups community. Let me try to catch up a bit...

* @Quinzel241, you have made so many in-depth and insightful posts in the forum threads for both BD and ASD. It has been a pleasure getting to know you and your gorgeous mind.

* The ASD forum would be so much less active and amazing without the contributions of the following Members: @ApricityLife (especially in preparing for Autism Awareness April this year), @WhiteBearClub, and @TortueDesBois.

* This forum (QFIF!!!) owes much to so many frequent contributers and supporters. Here are but a few: @lazyKatz, @MusicCandy, @Cheeney, @energeticCircle9867, @MrMysteryMan01, and @Moj. A lot of you provide so many clever and amusing distractions from the woes of the greater world, and when the games are innundated with disruption in all its devilish forms, you keep your composure and are FANTASTIC at gently guiding the threads back on track. <3

* @blitheSun94... What can I say? I am such a crazy fangirl for you! You seem to almost single-handedly keep the BD forum active, thoughtful, and educational. Your lengthy, varied, and inspiring threads, and responses to others' thread comments, are stunning. I can't possibly explain how sincerely and positively everyone reacts to your astute prompts to contemplate and better our lives. Please don't ever stop!

* @JunkieSuperstarIsListening, you are the most helpful, kind, and supportive contributor I have had the joy of encountering in the Group Support Chats. Especially in 35+. You so frequently relieve chatters' anxieties, assist folks think through pressing issues, and are always ready with a quick wit and amusing comment to keep the mood of the room from becoming too heavy. Plus.. you know what you did! hahaha. XOXO

There are so many other 7 Cups members that have earned page after page of kudos. If I posted them all, no one else would ever be able to read it all. I'll be back to add on all the wonderful others I would love to cheer on for all their hard and great work!

I have so much love for the entire 7 Cups community. <3

This shoutout goes to ... the amazing ❖ @affyavo ❖

You always have such valuable input to add to awesome forum posts on important issues. You're extremely knowledgeable and filled with tremendous insight. I love reading your replies in the forums .. whether it's in the support section of the forums, supporting other members with validating and empathetic responses or whether it's constructive feedback on issues raised or even questions brought up by others about certain things (e.g how to participate in the group chat when it's moving so fast :P - something that I struggled with too at the start. Yet I found myself at a loss as to how to reply. Your reply, on the other hand, was so very helpful! You've been here long enough to understand the complex workings of things and you're ever ready to help others adjust to the these things too. You have much insight and perspective on a lot of issues. And you share them in an open and honest way, that I VERY much admire ♥) . Your replies make it seem easy! But argh, it's not, not at all! It's so amazing and kind of you to give of your time and patience to help others out in this way. Your presence in the forums was, to be honest, one of my first inspirations. Your confidence, something to be envied! (If I didn't have the ability to delete or edit my posts, I would totally shy away from the forums completely). I also loved hearing your take/perspective on many issues (e.g the post on triggers). There's just so much to learn from merely observing! I hope that when I become an adult teen listener we might cross paths during a discussion or something! STAY AWESOME ♥

To a star of brilliance, ✩ @Allthexmas ✩

Sweet Chris, I just had to give you a shout-out. You melted my heart multiple times today and your words have had the biggest impact on me for a long time.

Firstly, a massive happy birthday, lovely. You deserve only the very best so I hope you treat yourself on this special day. And secondly, mannnnnn. You're brilliant, did you know that? It's always a joy to communicate with you and you're such a strong warrior. Your determination, accepting heart and warm self are unrivalled by all and it makes me smile to know that goodness still exists in the world. I'm incredibly proud of you and I will always have your back.

For a great friend, ❧ @IAmNathan ☙

I don't think I'll ever stop reminding you of your awesomeness, if I'm honest. It's incredible how selfless and kind you are, and it worries me that you don't leave enough love for yourself too. Seeing you message always brightens my day and by now, we're practically on the same wavelength. You constantly amaze me each day, be it your generosity, your humour, your bright spirit. You mean a tremendous amount to me and I care about you a whole lot.

You are awesome, and I'm glad, that I know you! :)

@DVeezy Thank you for being such an amazing, supportive person.

And what more sublime delight than to mingle tears with one whom the hand of heaven hath smitten!
