Day 24: End of the Year Gratitude Jar: A Collective Celebration
This month, 7 Cups launched video and audio therapy! To celebrate, we’re doing 25 days of Gratitude, Self-Care and Personal Growth. Read more here.
As the year winds down, it’s a perfect time to pause, reflect, and appreciate all that we’ve navigated, learned, and achieved. Gratitude, an act of recognizing and expressing appreciation for our blessings, has profound effects on our mental and emotional well-being. It not only encourages positive thinking but also helps us cherish our experiences and moments of joy, no matter how big or small.
As a community, let's bring an exciting twist to the traditional “gratitude journaling” approach with the "End of the Year Gratitude Jar" activity. This isn’t just a jar, but a vessel of our collective positivity, a source of community celebration.
Participation Guidelines:
Visualize a virtual, collective jar. Now, imagine folding a tiny piece of paper, writing a note of gratitude - something you are thankful for this year - and placing it in our collective jar. Your note can be about anything - personal growth, achievements, moments of joy, lessons learned, or even the challenges that made you stronger.
In the comments below:
1. Share something you're grateful for from this past year. Try to be as specific as you can; the tiny alleys of our lives often hold the greatest joys.
2. If comfortable, share why this particular aspect has stirred a sense of gratitude in you.
3. Feel free to share more than one note! The more notes of gratitude we gather, the richer our collective jar becomes.
We look forward to witnessing and sharing in the beautiful expressions of gratitude that truly make our community special.
❤ Grateful for life, love ones and most things in between.

1. Share something you're grateful for from this past year. My former partner and good friend.
2. If comfortable, share why this particular aspect has stirred a sense of gratitude in you. Because he was always there for me when I needed him.
At the risk of boasting (I don't mean it that way), I am grateful for:
- the price of gold going above $2,000/oz. in late September after seeing it fluctuate between ~$1,890 & $1,970+, & for it mostly staying above that since then. Previously $2,000 was the level of resistance for the price per oz; now it is the zone of support.*
- my being in a position wherein it's worth my time to pay attention to market data such as described above.
*support and resistance are technical terms that convey limits on the price of a tradable asset. This price is tracked on a special chart. If you want to know more, you can read up on it here.
Grateful for my life and the life of my loved ones

I am immensely grateful for my friends. I don't have a whole bunch of friends, nor am I part of a large community of buddies, but I have a few close friends and they are sooooo important in my life. I am very grateful for all of our interactions, conversations, and mutual support throughout this year.
Grateful for my health and my body for carrying me through some tough times this year ✨️
@SoulfullyAButterfly
Grateful for all the opportunities/experiences I had through out the year. Majority of this year was bad but they have taught me to learn and adapt.
I am grateful for my hardworking spirit and I am grateful for my small little apartment that brings me peace and joy. I am also grateful for the support of the 7cups community and all the people that I've met over the past few years. They've impacted my life a lot.
Thankyou for your end of the year gratitude jar @SoulfullyAButterfly
