2024: Gratitude Week w/ 7 Cups
Hello and welcome everyone to Gratitude Week w/ 7 Cups
Gratitude Day is celebrated annually on the 21st of September. The celebration of Gratitude Day allows both individuals and communities to come together and celebrate the broad meaning of gratitude in various ways.

There are so many ways that you can be thankful on World Gratitude Day. It can simply include:

- If you have a pet, your pet is worthy of your gratitude.
- You can also be thankful for beautiful nature for beautiful sunrises, sunsets, or simply how different seasons bring unique experiences.
- You can be thankful for the people around you or in the community that you encountered and made your day better even if for a moment.

i would like to join these discussions. I have found gratitude to be a necessary coping tool for my mental health. I don’t use it enough. When I or my children feel down, I like to list 10 things they/we are grateful for. Since this can be hard for kids, it’s fine to be grateful for things like shoes! Socks! Air and ice cream.
I need more gratitude in my life.
thank you for this.
thank for you organizing these wonderful events and a happy early world gratitude today to everyone!!

Gratitude Week sounds like such a beautiful and meaningful initiative!
I'm so excited to participate and reflect on all the beautiful things and people we have.
It's easy to get caught up in the daily grind, but taking a moment to appreciate everything around us can genuinely uplift our spirits.
I look forward to sending and receiving those 7 empathetic messages and engaging with the community through
#Gratitude2024!
Let's spread kindness and gratitude together. Thank you for organizing this! 💖✨
@ASilentObserver Thanks for a great post Obs, sorry to be so late!
I'd like to take a moment and appreciate nature. I love to just escape everything and find a forest and listen to the birds and feel the sun on skin and smell the fresh leaves. So calming and grounding.
We may be heading into Autumn and darker nights but that brings out the beautiful warm colours and the trees look so colourful and vibrant. 🍂
