I'm so glad to hear that you're doing well! Oooh I'm so excited to see the pictures of your journalll
All of the hobbies that you listed are truly amazing. I relate to you about having many hobbies ahaha. I'm really glad that you've been able to do some of these things to stay happy. Dancing is one of my main hobbies as well, do you do a specific form or is it just general? And about the music instrument, which one do you play?
@Paprika001
I'm glad you can relate🙌☺️ It's nice that we've similar hobbies. As for dancing, I've been taking lessons since I was a kid. I like classical dancing and over the years I've learned many other forms. By the way, I play the piano and several instruments. My favorite instrument is the piano, and I've been playing it for 22 years. How about you? What kind of dance do you like?
@Paprika001 thanks so much for posting this check-in!
Lots of my hobbies make me happy, I love to buy new paints, or actually, it takes me so long to choose and investigate I rarely buy any, so maybe the happiness is in the idea?

Oooh buying new paints sounds so fun! And don't worry, I completely understand the concept of finding happiness in the idea because I'm super indecisive. Sometimes I'll go to buy some room decor, come home with nothing because I can never choose what I want, but still be happy cause I loved the experience!
What types of things do you paint with the paint that you love to buy?
@Paprika001 I mostly paint nature, so flowers, the sea, still life or scenes. I would love to be able to paint portraits but so far I am totally useless lol!

1. How has your time on 7cups been lately?
Busy! But good busy!
2. How have you been lately?
See above - Busy but good busy!

Hmm new this week? I have a few new project requests that I've been getting started on.
1. I believe that many of our hobbies make us happy. Do you agree with this? What are some of your hobbies that make you happy?
I think if hobbies didn't make us happy on some level we wouldn't spend our time doing them. Though I find more than happiness my hobbies contribute to my mental and emotional wellbeing, they give me creative outlets for self expression, they give me things to focus on when I need to calm, they give me a sense of accomplishment when I need to feel that kind of success... I have so many different hobbies and they each do different things. I would say the ones that make me happiest include general 'crafting' and colouring. But that's barely touching the surface.
2. Do you think that you've done things that make you happy this month?
I have definitely done things that make me happy this month from writing and crochet, to getting out and spending time in nature.
Thanks for sharing these check-in questions with us!
@EmotionsListener
Thank you so much for sharing! It's great to see that you've been busy in a good way recently. It's great to see that the hobbies in your life provide you with so many positive things. This seems to be a really suitable subcommunity for you :D. The hobbies that you talked about are all so amazing. What types of things did you write this month?
@Paprika001
Lately, my time on 7cups has been great. I participated in a huddle and it was a great experience. It felt good to be supported with issues that I need help with. Lately, I've been ok but I have been struggling with relationships which is usual for me. Something new that happened this week is I'm working a new job that I like so far. Yes I think hobbies make me happy because they are therapeutic. My hobbies that make me happy are journaling, venturing into a new career, music, watching movies, funny shows and audiobooks. I have done a lot of things this month that make me happy including a staycation.
