Thank you to...

... @ZaraSmiles for making this lovely thread, and for being your lovely self. You are the kindest, most thoughtful person and you encourage people to be so friendly, it's amazing.

... @Iara for listening to me when I was having a personal crisis regarding my role on the site. You always know how to make someone feel appreciated and heard, myself included. You are honest and considerate, and someone I am so grateful for. I know I don't express it enough, but I really appreciate you and all you do.

... @OrunLeon for not being as scary and mean as you were when I first joined the site. Thank you for being so nice and friendly now, and for always being able to make me laugh with your wonderful banter. You are so intelligent and while your banter has a joking tone to it at times, it's also really thought-provoking and I appreciate it a lot.

... @Cadence for always being such an encouraging person! I don't think you realize how much of an impact you've had on me, but whenever you call me a disney princess, it puts the biggest smile on my face. Partly because I adore disney princesses, and partly because it's nice to get such a compliment from someone I admire so greatly. You make me feel valued, which is something I will always cherish.

... @Roadie for making me a smarter person, and for being so inspiring. You are someone I've always admired very much, and I always look forward to seeing what you've got to say. I've always come away having learned something from your forum posts, and the way you manage to bring support into the forums is something I find truly inspiring. Thank you for making that legendary forum upvote post, and for being legendary in general.

... @MayaRainbow2 for being a true mole model! I love talking to you, it really brightens up my day. You are unbelievably loyal and caring, and the way you deal with conflicts in the group support rooms never ceases to amaze me. Your rainbow double standard theory makes me laugh whenever I think about it, but I also can't help but nod when it comes to mind because it is also completely true. Thank you for being such a fun little rebel, it's an honour to call you my friend.

... @Dillion for being so helpful and dedicated. I really appreciate all that you do for the community, from discussions to projects. You approach everything with bundles of enthusiasm that I don't think I could ever muster up, and I'm in awe of your ability to make things flourish. you are a wonderful mentor and a wonderful guy, and the site is incredibly lucky to have you.

... @Lyra for being such a genuine and real person. I'm not sure if you'll see this because you've deactivated, but I feel the need to at least put my appreciation for you out there into the universe. You've shaped my 7 Cups journey so much, more than I'm pretty sure you know. You are someone I've admired even since before you were a teen star. You've always got insightful thoughts to share in the forums and in chatroom conversations, and I appreciate that you don't shy away from reality. You are willing to confront issues at their root in order to come to solutions, and manage to remain completely respectful at the same time. I don't think there will ever be a time where I'm not in awe of you, Lyra. Thank you for being you.

... @Celaeno for being a remarkable member of our community. I've never really had an interaction with you before, apart from in an introduction thread, if I recall this memory correctly. However, I've seen you everywhere on this site. The amount of support you demonstrate to your peers could teach a few listeners a thing or two. you've turned the feed into such a lovely place, and you make the forums all warm and fuzzy. You've also got the most welcoming profile I've ever seen from a member. You've proved to us all that regardless of who we are and what positions we may hold in a society, we can have an impact. Your impact on our community here has been tremendously positive.

There are so many wonderful people on this site who I could write appreciative notes to, so I'll have to come back another day!

I am grateful for my family planning my grandfather's 90th birthday!

Happy to have my brother and niece here spending freetime, while i need someone to enjoy with

I am thankful for my partner, his constant reassurances and support. although it is alot of pressure on him - i wouldnt be here in this way without him

Thanks to everyone who hasn't left me since i've told them I am depressed and self harm. Thanks to Laura, one of my best friends, who just told me yesterday that she was depressed, too, and that she had suicidal thoughts. We're going to keep fighting together. Thanks to everyone who had my back during a bad day.

Thanks to @glenm for having the initiative, drive and energy to not just set the site up, but to grow it and develop it, and fingers crossed, bring it to sustainability.

I am thankful for my family. They have been supportive of me throughout, especially in the dark times.

Thanks to my parents for imparting their 'old fashioned' values and for staying together.

I want to say thankyou to my best friends for how they support me

I am thankful for the people who understand me when I have my bad moments. They're the only ones who know what to do when I don't. I'm thankful to have them as my support system, and I can't imagine being without them
