Member Appreciation Day

amiablePeace77 May 28th, 2021

Hello beautiful Mindfulness Community heart #1

Kudos to everyone who reached out to this site to get support and also support themselves and others. It's amazing to see how compassionate you are in the discussions and open chats! You are truly lovely people!

The theme of today's Member Appreciation Day in Mindfulness is Compassion and Acceptance, so let's spend some moments on reflecting on it. wink

We all go through rough patches in our lives, have to cope with situations we never expected, situations we do not want but cannot change at that time, see loved ones hurting without being able to take away their pain, we might even start to dislike ourselves, feel unable to accept our looks, our traits, just the way we are. It hurts and it is stressful, and often there’s no quick fix or easy solution. sad However, we can become our own friend, be our own companion to help us through.

What kind of companion would you like by your side if you go through such a time? The kind of companion who says, with a cold, uncaring voice, “Suck it up, princess. I don’t want to hear your whining, or the kind of companion who says, with a kind and caring voice, “This is really tough, I’m here for you” , the kind of voice that tells you “Right now in this moment you can’t change things, only acceptance can help to prevent adding more suffering to your pain but it doesn't mean that you can't work on changing things” ?

Today I like to ask everyone to share some words of compassion for themselves and others and something about themselves they accept.

Let me start smiley

I accept my sensitivity, which was not always easy for me. I learned here to be much more compassionate toward myself and made this one of my priorities. I hope everyone on the site will find comfort and peace and accept themselves as they are. Remember you're amazing as you are in your own way! heart #2

Sometimes the image we have of ourselves is distorted by our own negativity. You're stronger than you think, better than you think. Don't let your mind trick you to believe otherwise.

"There are a lot of uncertainties, you're scared and terrified for tomorrow, the future , you constantly question your worth , your abilities, your efforts, but hear me okay it's okay to take a pause , okay to be late where you want to reach eventually you'll make it , everything will be alright , hang on to the hope and believe in yourself , now is not a time of surity but soon it will be . Believe in yourself like you believe in others "
