The little things

Reaper17 April 30th, 2023

Lets all share the little things that made you feel good or appreciated, and its something that wouldnt mean a lot to someone else but for you it did mean a lot.

for example someone recently told me i look like a certain celebrity and it made my day.

Okay so for me it's the silly fights or arguments I have with my friends which may not be big thing for them but for me it makes me really happy and adorable and also it add on to have something to laugh at later

I remember being told in another support community that I wrote beautifully when sharing my reflections. I’m not a confident writer after being poor at english literature and writing subjects but that comment certainly made me feel better.

@compassionateOak202 i understand, there is this fear of failure or rejection but people saying they liked your writing made it better. It should drive you to write more and i d love to read your work sometime

@compassionateOak202 that's the thing about this community, we always look for good in one another and hardly miss out on appreciating the good we saw!

when people genuinely appreciate things i do even if it was a small item......

i realized that how good i felt about being appreciated i NOW tend to tell people things that i appreciate not the obligatory "Thanks" but ... a real item of i appreciate this or that about you.

the feeling of making someone feel appreciated is very rewarding.

  1. @Reaper17 i just love how my sister comes in my room to 'annoy'me while im studying,she just dances around and does silly stuff even though shes older then me and then leaves the door open.But that refreshes me😙.

@Reaper17 this probably sounds odd, but the little things I appreciate is the fact that I'm not constantly scared anymore, I have a real bed to sleep in and clothes to wear and real food to eat. And I'm thankful for the people who rescued me and helped me be the person I am today 😁 and all the kind people I've met on here and in real life. I'm thankful for life ❤
