Member Appreciation Week: We Are All On The Same Path

hopedreamlove May 27th, 2021

Hello hello hello! In honor of Member Appreciation Week, the Young People of Color sub-community is very excited to bring you this post that aligns with the theme: We are all on the same path, inspired by Wayne Dyer's quote, "We are all on the same path. We're just in different places along that path."

This past year and a half has been difficult for the world, and though we may have all been facing similar issues, each and every one has experienced them differently. Another quote I have heard that I feel reminds us that we are unified even among our differences is “We walk the same path, but got on different shoes, live in the same building, but we got different views.”- Drake

🌸 What branch/step are you on the path of life? This can be absolutely anything!

🌹 What is one thing you can do to support others as they move through their branches of the path? What is one way others can support you?

🌸 Sometimes it can be easy to forget that though we all walk the same path, that does not mean we walk in each other’s shoes. What is one way we can celebrate our differences while still maintaining unity?

Thank you for participating! Feel free to check out other Member Appreciation Posts here! And please remember, wherever you are on your path is okay, you are not alone. <3

I will try to support people by being kind to them.

I would love if people are not judgemental towards me :) ​​​​

The recovery path can be full of both its ups and downs. At times it can feel quite difficult, and other times it can feel so fulfilling. Wishing you the very best with your recovery path!

Kindness is about incredible way to support others! Totally understandable to wish for people to treat you without judgement, everyone deserves that.

Yesss, self-love and compassion are great ways we can celebrate our differences while maintains unity!

Thank you for participating in this event! Have a great weekend as well!

I think am in between paths or chapters in my life. . . ending one thing and beginning something new.

Encouraging memes, let them vent. . . long night chats, make them laugh

@Rebekahwriter13 thank you so much for tagging along in this event :D

I wish you the best of luck with that. I admire that you're trying something new! I tend to be the apprehensive type so I will also work harder towards experimenting with life.

Ooh thank u for showing me this new method. I never knew memes were for comforting but I understand how comedy makes some of us gain the strength to be able to laugh at our problems which is a victory in itself.

yesss I agree! being unique can be such a positive trait, we can learn so many different things about each other and supporting will give us that push to do more. 🤗

@hopedreamlove thank you so much for this post it's w great reminder to see although we share different perspectives, we're in this together.

🌸 What branch/step are you on the path of life? This can be absolutely anything!

I think I'm at one of the highest peaks of my life. I went through such a difficult decision these past 2 months that I thought determined everything but I found light in something I found absolutely horrible. I believe that determines a lot about the growth of my values and with the mindset of doing the best with what I have and thriving, I will maintain this peak. Although I don't mind challenges as that's what helped me reach that state in the first place hehe

🌹 What is one thing you can do to support others as they move through their branches of the path? What is one way others can support you?

Lending a listening ear! Personally, growing as a person is extremely hard to do alone. I couldn't tell right from wrong so speaking to those who placed a certain standard on me confused me so I went to listeners on 7 cups and my close friends who did not impose their opinions but at the same time, didn't cast away my perspective as one of many others. This relates back to the first point stated how although we are in the same place, we share different paths so individual attention means a lot.

Not only searching for listening ears but choosing to listen for others. This mutual agreement of listening is a first step to greater understanding. None of us are psychic after all! Unless if u are hehe

It sounds like the decision you had to make was incredibly difficult. I admire that through your this ordeal, you were able to find light. Some of the hardest, lowest points in our life can indeed lead to the highest peaks. I am really glad you are at that point currently! Lending a listening ear is it hour imposing opinions can absolutely help support others! I totally agree, growing as a person is very difficult to do alone. Choosing to listen to others can for sure help us celebrate our differences while still maintaining unity! Thank you so much for participating! Wishing you the best Red heart
