Sun's Space 🌻
Hey hey lovely people coming across, I hope y'all are doing well.💛
From quite some time I've been wanting to create my own space around here, somewhere, I can be myself, share a little more of me and encourage others too.
In this thread, you can expect some inspiring words, quotes, appreciations and gratitude, sharing about my 7 cups journey, thoughts, insights, experiences in life, random musings etc. (Basically anything that comes to mind or I find on the internet lol)
Feel free to spend time here, upvote and reply if you'd like to, share your thoughts on the posts etc.🥰
More than welcome, as long as we keep this a mutually supportive, respectful, kind and safe space for everyone.
Thankyouuu so much for being here.
Hugs, Cookies and Good Vibes for everyone!❤

"The way I see it, if something makes you sad when it ends, it must have been pretty wonderful when it was happening. Truth be told, I always felt it a bit lazy to just think of the world as sad, because so much of it is. Because everything ends. Everything dies. But if you step back, if you step back and look at the whole picture, if you're brave enough to allow yourself the gift of a really wide perspective, if you do that, you'll see that the end is not sad, Rebecca. It's just the start of the next incredibly beautiful thing." (This is Us) 💛
(Unsure if I've shared this before lol xD love the dialogue/ quote too much!) ✨
"No matter how much suffering you went through, you never wanted to let go of those memories.” ― Haruki Murakami
Oof this one hits hard hehe. It be like that sometimes. XD
(Now I'm going to ramble a bit lolll, in my "thinking deep" hour 😛)
Forever holding onto the familiar, known feelings. ♡
I feel, with familiarity comes comfort but also a certain "oh I'm still stuck here" vibe, some things are harder to let go of because of the familiarity it holds for us, despite the discomfort it causes, the 'not-so-nice' experiences even, it's difficult to let them go sometimes because that's all we've ever known, even those difficult 'negative' emotions, that take so much space in our mind, that we have no space left for positive emotions, experiences, people, so what do we do? We become repulsive and push these away. *-*
Which is a very valid thing, a simple example, something as kind, pure, sweet like an appreciation or even something like a "you did good" can feel rather uncomfortable, to those that have never been said that to, or worse who have heard and become used to hearing the opposite of this one all their life.
It is valid because you cannot expect someone who's just starting school to recite a poem to you, or even sing the Alphabet at that stage, alphabet is *bizarre* to them because they don't know, aren't aware of it, aren't "familiar" with it yet.
*Yet*, yes yet, just because they don't know it now, it doesn't mean they would never know or can never learn. They can, and will, at their own pace, with lots of encouragement, support and compassion in their learning journey.
~ ♡ ~
No wonder how many of us, are unable to let go of the past, no matter how difficult those events may have been, or how awful the feelings that came along with them were, it was what we "knew", what we know, and what we try to hold onto~ a sense of comfort with something we knew, even in an uncomfortable situation or person, or memory (sounds pretty twisted lol, but yeah, blame it on human brain xD)
~ ♡ ~
The good thing here? We can try unlearning some of this, in our own time.
Like that kiddo starts school, trying to learn the Alphabet, we can learn to unlearn some of our past, or atleast try to remove the "comfort" factor from it.
The harsh events, the painful memories, they shouldn't have to be stored in the name of comfort, they are anything but comfortable. And you deserve to free yourself from it, to try to live without the clinging memories that hold you back always from really living your life, from being who you really are, who you want to be, or even the ones that stop you from discovering yourself without them. There's more to you than what you've been told, and you should be allowed to explore, know, and fall in love with yourself, over whatever time you need for it, and ofcourse, always at *your* pace. ❤
To stepping out of the older "comfort zone"; To creating space for new and happier, healthier, better memories; To becoming more kind, more patient and more loving towards yourself and becoming familiar with the good things in life; To accepting the love and compassion you need and deserve; To healing; To growing; To becoming; To being; To living; To loving; To you! ❤

In all things uncertain in this world, you make all things beautiful. You bring light to everything and every heart you touch.
You are a radiant soul. You are sunshine.
@VictoriaLove7 *hugs tight* Vic, *you* are beautiful!💛💛💛
Hey hey lovely people, fluttering by to send some love your way! 🦋❤
I'm only a little away to add "can occassionally fold paper into beautiful little things" to my resume lolol! 😂
Oooh by the way, origami is so fun, join us in making cute butterflies Here (clickable). 🥰
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Aww they're lovely. Wish I could make cute stuff like these. I made a frog 😆 today, but not as cute as these butterflies.
@VictoriaLove7
Aw thankyouuu, lovely!
It's hard to believe anything you do isn't a job well done, Vic, even so, origami is what makes you feel happy and when something makes us feel happy or relaxed~ it doesn't have to be perfect, rightttt?!❤
Besidessss, I bet the frog you made is super cute!🥰
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Aww, thank you for your kind words, Sunshine 🌞 ❤ and I like the cute frog gif 😋
So true! Origami is enjoyable and it makes us happy. I've been trying to make something else too. 😌
But the frog I made doesn't even look like a frog 😁 (even after I drew eyes on it).
And I thought I have a bunch of colorful origami paper, but somehow they are not really square-shaped. So, I cut them. Then I realized they are not origami paper, but just colorful note paper. 😆
@VictoriaLove7
Awww it does look like a frog lol! Also maybe a hybrid version 🐸×🐷 hehe! Super cute either way, the eyes make it cuterrr!🥰
I know right, Vic?! The size of the paper is really important while origamifying lol, I realised too. :') I hope you can find some origami sheets and make more cutu art!🤗
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Hahaha 😄 yes yes, it is a hybrid 🐸 X 🐖.
(I thought origamifying is a new word, then I googled it 😁)
@VictoriaLove7 I'll take the credit for coining the word Origamifying!😛
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou

Happy new year buddy and yayyy to our friendship- year #3.
I want you to know that my world would not have been this beautiful if I didn't meet my bestest buddy here. To be honest, I have always taken everything for granted in my life because nothing has been difficult for me to get. Everything was prepared and served in front of me. But it was only a friendship which never got so deep. This life will always thank you because you are the part of my life which is filled with the most beautiful colors and memories. I have never taken your company for granted. To understand the importance of anything in this life, I have learned from you and learned for you. I will always cherish and respect our friendship the most. Thank you dear, for filling my life with so many memories and colours. 🤗 I am lucky that this friendship of ours is for life. I hope that I always try to fill as many colors in your life as I have. My affection for you will remain like this forever.
Tanu❤️
@dtanushree
Omigoshhh cutest delivery people ever haha! Am I allowed to accept the delivery *and* the ones who delivered?🥺😛
Dearesttt Tanuuu,
To begin with, I really love this letter-style lol, we've become "pen" friends for real here now! xD
You make my day, many days and then many more days by just being *you*, even your thought makes me so happy and you might know if you're having a lot of hiccups, it is probably just me thinking of my loveliest buddy. ❤
You take your cuteness level on a different one every single time haha and I'm just in so much awe always. Thankyouuuu for *always* thinking of ways to make me feel so special, and for reminding me of your special-self in the most beautiful ways, not that you need to, but the seeing you around is just recipe enough for a melted heart!
Imma need the squeeshy hugs and omg the infinite pizza coupon 😮 you clearly know the way to my heart! xD
I know right?! How fast time flies, it's the third year already and I'm just grateful I get to do this with you, with you by my side and forever close in my heart. 🥺 Couldn't have asked for anything better than this!
Awww you know you teach me gratitude. Even like in your bio, "Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul." You are the bestest soul, my snow-mate for life and beyond (I remember our pact to ghost the Earthland together when we become ghosts😛).
You keep reminding me of the power gratitude holds and you continue to encourage me to feel grateful and practice more gratitude also, come what may, in life. And for that, I'm so grateful to *you*.
Smh call me selfish but I'm soooo blessed that I got to experience your friendship and love with such deep investment and care first. Other people really did miss out. I consider myself super blessed for this very reason, that "other people" doesn't include me, I got to know you, I got to be your friend, I got to love you and the absolute bestest, most yum cherry on top~ I got to be loved by you, by someone who carries so much love in her heart, and it really does feel like a blessing all in all. 🧿🧿 (lmaooooooo)
You don't need to thank, Tanuuu, it's a mutually shared blessing, one that is closest to me heart and always will be. 🥰
I'm all mushy and emotional now hahaIAmCryingHelpHahaha. 🤧
You already do buddy, you really do fill my life with sooooooo many colours, colours of friendship, colours of love, colours of care, colours of gratitude, colours of hope, colours of kindness, and literally any other sweet colour one could use in their canvas of life. I ain't no art critic, but in my eyes, this art is the most beautiful in the world! Loafff youuuu! ❤
Happpyy Happy Everyday!🤗 *tight squishy hugs*
Yours only,
Sunshine 🌞
"Oops! I seem to have come unplugged.. 😲 My team are working on plugging me back in as quickly as possible. Try again later!"
Noni is my unofficial twin lol!😃
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou,
Haha. Thanks for making me happy Sun 😎 Noni is a very broken bot tbh. 😎
@amiableBunny4016 Aww no thankyou needed, happy to make you happy anytime, Shining Bunny! ❤
Everyone knows right?! Noni is quite something lol!😂
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou,
we should have a noni 2. this noni seems to nees retirement.
pfft.. ahahaha.
@amiableBunny4016 Ooh yes xD we can't guarantee if Noni #2 would be efficient either though!😭
*replaces noni* xD I can try to be less annoying and less broken than Noni for sure!😂
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou,
But You is not broken. To be honest you would do a better job than Noni. noni needs a break.
Lol. Noni bot was the bot who helped me connect to a listener when I was new on cups. Those days were strange lol 🤣
(I share alot of random things so be aware I talk alot once I get comfy with someone)

🥳 balloons and party hats definitely make it better, no?🥰
Light hearted part aside, it's certainly important to acknowledge how we feel, no matter how uncomfortable or difficult or "incomprehensible" it seems.💛 ~ Y'alls reminder for the time you read this!🤗
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
That's true, we don't have to be perfect at all times. When we allow ourselves to feel whatever it is that we feel, then we can go through it and come out of it, and hopefully we will feel less stress or feel better then.
@VictoriaLove7 Aw yes true, wise Vic. 🤗
I also feel that even if acknowledging something doesn't inherently make us feel "better"/ "improved", it's still a brave thing to do, one of the many steps towards allowing feelings just *be*, or work through them more actively, whatever feels more inclined towards, at the time.💛
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
😆 *yeets stressed and replaces it with depressed*
@emotionalTalker2260 Imma join too! 🥳
