...See more Hello, 7 Cups Residents, 7 Cups is a community of compassion and support. We at 7Cups believe in acknowledging and celebrating milestones, accomplishments, special moments, and days. Days like Birthdays and Cupsversay (Anniversary at 7Cups) are some of the most important days of our lives. We want to join in your celebration and celebrate you in our own style - the 7Cups way. We share love bombs, birthday wishes, shout-outs, cookies, cakes, glitter, and hugs. We come together to celebrate each other because you matter to us. You are a part of our community and we are blessed to have you. Thank you for being a 7 Cups resident. * If it is your birthday, please let us know here. * If it is the birthday of someone you know here, please share with us here. Also, we would love to hear how would you like to celebrate your birthday here on 7 Cups or any experiences of your birthday that you are comfortable sharing with us. Also, Do you know? * You can host a small party for your friend! A 15-30 min banner can be set by a mod in the community room so you can celebrate the birthday party. The party should not clash with any prior scheduled event (check tockify [https://www.7cups.com/home/communityCalendar.php]). Please reach out to the community mod on duty to let them know of the party and ask them to set an alert so more people can join in the fun. Both members and listeners can host, there are no requirements to who can throw a party! * You can also make a post for them Click here [https://www.7cups.com/forum/PositivityGratitude_170/HonoringBirthdaysCupversaries_179/] to see the forum section where you can make posts to celebrate birthdays. * Some rules to follow: 🎈 While it is okay to celebrate someone's special day, it is not okay to make others feel excluded. If someone is unaware of who is being celebrated, provide them some context and make an effort to include them. 🎈 All celebratory parties are public, this means anyone can join and they should be welcomed wholeheartedly. 🎈 The host who requested/set up the banner is required to stay for the whole party and ensure that everyone present feels welcomed and included. While it can be a good idea to show your appreciation and acknowledgment through such events but please don't feel pressured to host or attend any party. This is just an option for those interested. If your birthday is coming up and you want to throw yourself a party, that is also perfectly okay! We encourage and celebrate self-care and self-love. Let's work together to make each other's special days more fun! Happy Birthday, fellow cupser. I wish you a lovely birthday and a thriving year filled with joy and accomplishments.
Reflection Question: Where can I learn to laugh rather than cry?

...See more Where can I learn to laugh rather than cry? Life can throw us some tough moments, but I wonder if there’s a way to shift our perspective and find humor even in the hardest times. How do you turn challenges into something lighter? I’d love to hear your experiences and stories!

...See more Hello, yesterday it was about overcoming difficulties, today let's dive into some nostalgia.  Childhood is one thing which we remember fondly and it usually shapes us into who we are, so what's one thing you can reflect about your childhood? 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. 💜)
My insights and note to my amazing friends

...See more Trigger Warning: contains personal reflections and apologies for any actions or words that may have caused discomfort. Please proceed with caution if you are sensitive to discussions about social interactions or personal challenges. My warm greetings to all the wonderful people who are reading this. This post is special as I want to convey something to my friends. 7 Cups has always been a welcoming space for me. I am so grateful for that. I got the opportunity to meet spammers to amazing fantabulous people. I learned a lot from this beautiful journey as WeEarth. I am a person who always values friendship but doesn't know how to express it. Sometimes I feel confused about what to say or mention in order to maintain a friendship. I tell myself to be myself, which may help me build strong connections. But, sometimes I act weird like too extrovert and introvert. Initially for me, professional talks were more comfortable and easier than having a simple talk with friends. I know that, I find it difficult to express myself in person, but I find online communication more comfortable. My sister is more comfortable meeting in person, perhaps due to our different situations and needs. She tends to be more in the front, while I prefer to work in the backend. Maybe that's why I find 7 cups more friendly. I am literally afraid to talk with friends, but I manage if it's a professional meeting, speech or team communication. I wasn't like this, but over the period of time and situations, I became like this. I am thankful for that path as I learnt so many things and it helped me to have my perspective. My friends if any of my actions or words left you sad or any kind of discomfort, I sincerely apologize and hope I will be able to be myself and continue our friendship. I have got so many amazing awesome friends here and I hope I am very comfortable now talking with friends, much better than before. Thank you everyone for everything, being supportive and with me in my 7 Cups family.

...See more What is your mini mantra? Saying/thinking this every day upon waking can really make great changes in your life. Penumbral thoughts... first thoughts upon waking can make a big impact on the rest of your day. I find putting a sticky note next to the bed with what you wish to say/think/feel can remind you to have a positive affirmation when waking up. And if you don't feel it everyday, that is ok too, all good things take practice.
Overcoming self-esteem issues
by ScottGambit

 February 23rd
...See more I have stuggled with self-esteem my whole life and have never felt comfortable with how I look. I started going to therapy a couple months and my therapist has been really helping me with this. Today I took my first selfie in almost 10 years, I made it my profile picture even though I know most people don't do that here. I made it my profile picture because I want to be proud of what I look like and I dont want to hide anymore. I know I have my flaws but I am starting to see my strengths and be comfortable with who I am. I know it's just 1 picture but it is a big deal for me and I am proud to be taking this step, even if it is small. I don't know if anyone will care about this but I just wanted to share :) I hope everyone is happy and comfortable with who they are
