...See more It's not bad to be single. I enjoy it very much now. It's not a source of anxiety, awkwardness, crime, or disorder because I feel great and enjoy being single. It's addictive, and it adds extra pride in myself. It also generates a rare charisma that I’ve never found in others who aren’t single. To those who feel the same as I do, I want to say our journey will go smoothly because we won’t harm anyone.

Your face is a story
by flowerSage
Last post
 December 9th
...See more I was brushing my teeth this morning when I noticed two small faded scars on my face from my childhood. One on my chin from when I fell of a swing playing alone as a child, and one on my cheek from accidentally scratching my face with my bracelet and not noticing for over an hour. They're mostly faded, but I was surprised how they still remain, holding that piece of childhood for me.  I've always been a little self concious of my nose, but the more I look at it, the more it looks like my grandmas, especially when I smile. So when I look like someone I love so much when I smile, how could I ever stop smiling?  Growing up and even now, I have a chubby round face, so all the adults used to squeeze my cheeks and exclaim about how cute it was. Now, before I try and suck in my cheeks for a picture I always think of the love that was showered on my because of them. At this point I've stared into my face for almost an hour, thinking about all the beautiful people that came before me with my features, how could I ever think that those people weren't perfect? And more importantly when I judge myself, I'm judging their thick brows and their round cheeks and their forehead and jaw and eyes.  Suddenly I can't bring myself to do it anymore. Because I am a collection of these beautiful people and stories, and I truly love it.  So next time you look in the mirror, be sure to ask yourself; what stories does your face hold?

SCA: The Power of Self-Care
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 September 23rd
...See more Hello Community, 7Cups is a community where you can find everyone advocating for self-care. Last week, we discussed the power of self-care in the Positivity Corner group chat and all participants shared their insights, encouragement, and support to promote the practice of self-care. This month we are celebrating the awareness of self-care [https://www.7cups.com/forum/projectsandevents/General_2421/SeptemberisSelfCareAwarenessMonthEventsHelpWanted_336603/] and gratitude. [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/GroupSupportCommunityEvents_2295/2024GratitudeWeekw7Cups_336990/]  But, something that often comes up is that self-care is often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. It is a significant aspect of overall well-being. Many think and there is a misconception that it is about selfishness or indulgence. But, that is untrue. It is more about recognizing the importance of taking care of oneself to lead a more fulfilling and balanced life.  We live in times that often emphasize productivity, goals, and success. But, we also need to understand that taking care of ourselves and each other is the way to live a well-lived life. So as you start your day to begin your journey of productivity and meeting goals, and other needs, do take a moment to do two steps of reflection and ask yourself a question: “What can I do to take care of myself today?” Once you answered the first question, the second question to reflect on, “What can you do to take care of others around you?”  Responding to these questions can help you unlock the awareness of yourself and how self-care is beneficial for you.   So, what does self-care mean to you? How do you practice it Let's discuss and feel free to share your thoughts and experiences on self-care.

Let me know in this thread. For me it has to be the moment I learned to ride a bicycle and I felt unstoppable!  It was the happiness in those little achievements which one could apply right now as well to just lift themselves up.

Self-Gratitude Letters | You've Got Mail! 📧
by JujuBears
Last post
 June 29th
...See more Hi Everyone, As the days rush by, we often find ourselves caught up in the whirlwind of life — navigating challenges, adapting to changes, and pushing forward.  Amid this hustle, we tend to forget an important act of kindness: thanking ourselves. Recently, I realized that I don’t pause enough to appreciate my resilience — the way I’ve overcome obstacles, embraced change, and kept moving forward.  Perhaps you’ve felt this too — the tendency to focus on the next hurdle rather than celebrating the victories behind us.  So, let’s change that.  This week, I invite you all to join me in a simple yet powerful practice of self-gratitude: Self-Gratitude Letters | You've Got Mail! 📧 Take a moment to acknowledge your strength, your growth, and your unwavering spirit.  Whether it’s a small triumph or a monumental leap, honor it!  You can reflect on topics such as: * Accomplishments and changes you’ve initiated * Challenges you’ve conquered * Wise decisions you’ve made * Lessons that shaped you * Unique character traits that define you * and/or more (get creative!) Now, write yourself a thank-you note!  Be kind to yourself — you deserve it. 🏆 ------------------------- (P.S: If you’d like to respond to this post, feel free.  We’re here to uplift and support you!  Whether you choose to write it digitally or on paper, go with what feels best for you!  As you engage in this exercise, approach it with gentleness. 💜)
