Hey friend,
I read every single entry in “the grove of a spruce tree” and wrote a huuuuge paragraph for you.
Let me know when you’re online so you can read it?
Love,
-Everett

Everettttttttt 🤗 ❤️ It's good to see ya 💖 I'm actually online for a bit now, if you'd like to send the paragraph now 😛
(Hmm, I didn't get a notification that I was tagged 🤔 I'm lucky that I found this xD)
@selflessSpruce1515
OH MY GONDOLA IT’S SPRUCEEEEE!!! MY FAVORITE 7CUPS USER!!! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH AND I LOVE YOU AND I CARE ABOUT YOU BEYOND WORDS!!!!!!
Trust me, not a day has gone by where I don’t think of you.
Okay here’s the paragraph (it’s what I formulated after reading your diary forum thread, so I’m just gonna jump right in to some heavy topics, mostly the first five words, sorry about that) (the font change was because I copied and pasted from my notes app)
Dear Spruce,
Even if you hate yourself, I love you more than you could ever imagine. I know that life hasn’t been easy for you and I’m so sorry. You’re a wonderful person and you deserve so much better. I know I probably can’t be of much help, but I’ll never give up trying. I’ll be by your side on good and bad days, listening and supporting you in any way I can. Please remember that your feelings are valid but not forever. If I were god, I would make it so that you were given all the happiest and love in the world. No matter what happens, you’ll always have me, through thick and thin, I’ll always care about you. I want to meet you in person so badly, I would hug you and never let go. I hope you know how much you mean to me. I would do almost anything to make you happy. As someone who has serious trauma, I can really relate to the aftermath of yours and how damaging it can be. I cried reading your difficult entires, I love you so much and I never want you to have to suffer. You know you can always come to me when you’re struggling, right? I don’t mind at all that you’re a bit older than me. I just want to be there to comfort you, always, forever, no matter what. Even though you’ll always deserve someone better than me, I want you to know that no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless it seems, no matter how little light there seems to be at the end of the tunnel, I will always, always be right by your side, giving you all the hugs and encouragement and empathy and kindness in the world. No matter what, no matter what you are worthy, valid, and beautiful. Even if you don’t believe it, I know in my heart that it’s true. I don’t care if it takes the rest of our lives for me to convince you how amazing you are, I’ll never give up. You’re truly perfect just the way you are.
*Huggles you tightly* I can’t wait for August when we can talk via private messages again! I don’t know how I’ve lasted 20 days without you. I hope this isn’t too much to say since we’re online friends, but you’re one of my favorite people. I’ve never met someone as kind, sweet, and thoughtful you are. If you aren’t the definition of a good person, I don’t know who is. I love you!
@Fluffysheep8
Omg, Everett 🥺 *super dupper tight huggles for youuuuu* 💖💖💖
I don't know what to say 😮 These words are the most beautiful words I've ever read, and I had to each sentence 3 times to absorb all of the positivity, genuine feelings, and brightness that radiated from your words. 💖💖💖 Your soul is so beautiful, I have to say, and I can sense that each word came from that rare, yet spectacular, heart of yours. :') ❤️ It is people like you who remind us of the goodness we have within us, and believe in us when we can't even think of the kindest words to say to ourselves. ❤️❤️❤️ How much you care- it's awe-inspiring and appreciated so much ❤️❤️❤️ You truly understand what it's like to be shrouded in so much darkness, and to eventually find that light again, even if it's only so little. I have seen you go through a dark period of time in your life when it felt like you wouldn't feel whole and pure again, but now- you have overcame that feeling of despair and grief, and made your way into the light 🤗 ❤️ That's is so inspiring, and that motivates me to continue searching for the light at the end of my tunnel ❤️❤️❤️ All I can say is "thank you"- you have been such a motivation to me, and I care about you beyond words, my dear friendsie 💖💖 I love ya too, and send you the very best as well 💖💖💖 After all you have done, you deserve that 💗💗
@selflessSpruce1515
*accepts huggles faster than the speed of light*
Omg- are these- are these really the most beautiful words you’ve ever read…?! I feel so honored 😭
I miss you more than words can describe… how have you been? Tell me everything 🤗 ❤️
@Fluffysheep8
Yussss, those words warmed my heart beyond words 😭 ❤️
And I've had been riding an emotional rollercoaster, honestly :') I've just been remembering some memories that I buried deep within me for so long- it was hard, but I'm doing the best I can to finally process them for once ❤️ I'll get through this- I have a feeling it will take a long time for me to fully accept what I've been through, and to see myself in a positive light. However, that doesn't mean that I'll give up - and having people like you in my life who see the better side of me, no matter what 💖 That's what keeps me going, I'm serious 💗 Your words have more of an impact than you may realize, and it's not only the words though- the time you took to write all of this, with so much passion and care 💖 Words cannot even start to describe how thankful I am to have you in my life 💖
@Fluffysheep8
Hey Everett ❤️ I know that you've seen me poking around forums, and I was responding to some of those that I've been tagged in. I'm not really available to chat much though at the moment, unfortunately. :') However, I'll be more available on the 7th, since I promised to be on then. 🤗
I'll just leave a few questions here for you, just to start a little bit of a conversation: How are you feeling today? How was your weekend? 💖
@selflessSpruce1515
Oh my dear good god, last night was the worst night in the history of the world. It won't let me post the story to the forum thread because it keeps saying "something in your forum post sounded like you might be in crisis. If you are thinking about harming yourself or someone else, please refer to these crisis resources." I tried deleting/replacing some of it, but it still won't let me post it. So here's the link to the google doc with the story of what happened last night:

Out of everything in the world, one of the things I appreciate the most is our friendship. I’m so grateful for you. You are more than enough. My life is much better because you’re in it. You make me float up like millions of balloons. You’re more than an excellent friend. You’re one of the best friends I’ve ever had. I hope you’re proud of yourself and how far you’ve come because I know I am. Even the things you don’t like about yourself make you more lovable. I’m infinitely grateful we met. All the pain you’ve been through is valid and understandable. If I could take it away, I would. But I can’t, so all I can do is give you my love. Your existence makes me smile eternally. I trust you more than anyone on this planet. You’re a ray of sunshine on a desolate day. Loving you feels like the most natural thing in the world. I love and accept you just the way you are. You always make my day. You’re more than what I deserve. Somehow, you make time stop and fly at the same time. You’re amazing, and I’m lucky to even know you. You are beautiful inside and out. You always seem to know what I want to hear. You have a heart of gold. Thank you for being you. Many of my fondest memories include you. I don’t know what I did to deserve someone as loving as you. Life is always happier with you around. Nothing about you is mediocre. There’s ordinary. And then there’s you. I didn’t know how important friendship was until I met you. You’re my constant reminder that people can be good. You’re even better than a unicorn because you’re actually real. Thank you for existing. The world would be so boring without you. I know I can't imagine life without you. I'm sending you the best of wishes and I hope all your dreams come true. I'll be right by your side through everything. I love you beyond words, Spruce. Happy birthday.
@Fluffysheep8
Everettttttt 💖💖 Finally, I'm able to reply to this after going through all of my birthday tags :') Now you have my undivided attention as I reply to you, hehe 😛
I literally have no words, but I am so grateful to have you in my life- you make me feel so special in such a unique and wonderful way, and make me feel so understood and validated. Knowing that I'm one of the best friendships you've ever been in - that really warms my heart beyond words, my dear friendsie 🥺 💗 You're such an amazing hooman bean, and it was you and so many hooman beans on here who have really changes my perspective as well on what it means to have a true friendship :') I feel so lucky that I came across 7 Cups so that I would find my friendsies for life 🤗 💗 I don't regret it one bit 💖💖💖
*hugssssssssss for you* Thank you again, Everett 🥺 💖💖 (even a "thank you" cannot describe to the truest extent how grateful I am ❤️)
@selflessSpruce1515
Awww, Spruca 🥺 you’re welcome, I’m so glad I could help make your birthday special 🤗❤️
I finished your birthday gift! The books say “List of Reason why Spruce is amazing.”
@Fluffysheep8
🥺 What a beautifulllllll collage, omg 🥲 *hugs Everett super tight* You worked so hard on this, I can tell, and- there's no words to describe my awe :') No one has ever made a collage for me before, and it's literally beyonddddd sweet 🥺 💗
Hehe, the memoji actually looks very similar to me irl (the smile makes me laugh, bahaha xD) 😛 Thank youuuuuuu 🤗 💖💖💖
@selflessSpruce1515
Awww 🥺 *hugs Spruce back even tighter* you’re so sweet, I can’t even- 😭
You’re very welcome, you deserve every single wonderful thing that ever existed on this planet.
I don’t really know what to talk about… *googles conversation starters* what has your favorite part of today been?
@Fluffysheep8
Well, my day just started, lmaoooo xD But I'm looking forward to going to a botanical garden in the city today, and I'm sure I'll be taking loads of pictures, hehe 😛
How about youuu? What are you looking forward to today? ❤️
@selflessSpruce1515
Ooh, a botanical garden! You'll have to share some of those pictures with me ❤️ I hope you have a great time 😊
I biked around my neighborhood by myself for the first time. It was a bit confusing but mostly exciting. I'm cooking empanadas later today. I had some when I was in Chile and they were very tasty.
*hugs*
@Fluffysheep8
I actually just about came back from the botanical garden, and I had a really good time! Of course, I took tons of pictures, and I'll send them once I get the chance. ❤️
Ooo, I can understand how biking for the first time around the neighborhood can be confusing, but it sounds like you did really well, and I'm so proud of you. 💖
I absolutely *love* empanadas, and I hope they come out really well 🤗 💖
*hugssssss* ❤️❤️
@selflessSpruce1515
That’s awesome! I’m so glad! I can’t wait to see the pictures 😊❤️
Awwww! I- ugh- you- 😭 too much sweetness! I love you so much.
The empanadas turned out great! https://uploadpie.com/DZXWFr
Are your private messages open?
I hope you have a great night and sleep well with no nightmares and only dreams of fluffy sheep ❤️❤️❤️
@selflessSpruce1515
H-hi… I’m not doing so well…
I’m touch starved, dissociated, lonely, anxious, ashamed…
One of my close friends posted a status update saying “I’m having a nervous breakdown” and I tried to help/support/comfort them but they pushed me away…
*It shouldn’t have hurt that bad*
But my feelings get really hurt when close friends are upset, I try to help/support/comfort them, and they push me away.
It makes me feel like I’m not wanted.
I hope it doesn’t seem like I’m dumping my problems on you… it’s just… I don’t really have anyone else to talk to right now… 😔
