Hi, everyone. It's Mercy. I am honoured to be with so many wonderful people here. And today I am posting because I want to get some things off my chest.

As you know, this is a difficult time for all of us. With all of the social distancing measures, the anxieties, and all the mental health issues going on. I have also recently heard of a lot of reports regarding how people are treating each other on 7 Cups. I am not going to go into the specifics, but I have heard many reports about people being hurt on here nd made uncomfortable. And that breaks my heart, because in the end, 7 Cups is about love, not about hurt. In a time like this, love is more important than ever.

That is why 7 Cups was created. It was created so that there could be a platform where we could love each other. Be there for each other. Treat each other with the respect and care we deserve, and ensure those who are struggling get the support they deserve. 7 Cups is about love. And we all need to love each other. Treat each other with kindness, respect, and care. There is a person behind every screen name. Someone with real feelings, real thoughts, a real body. And there is no such thing as too much love we can give each other.

Love means sticking up for each other, through the good times and the bad times. If you see something wrong, take the appropriate actions to help make it better. That way, we can continue making this community a loving place to be.

Never, ever underestimate how much love one person can create. In fact, if someone helps just 2 people a day, that is around 50,000 people in a lifetime. So much love, I know, right? So let's all do our part to spread love, both on here and in the real world.

Let's choose love by choosing to be kind to one another, to be understanding to one another, to help one another, to not hurt one another with our words or actions.

Let's choose love by following the guidelines here, to help keep us safe.

Let's choose love by doing our part as listeners to improve every day. Read up on guides on how to become a better listener, reach out to a mentor, hone our skills every step of the way.

Let's choose love by loving ourselves. It is okay to do things that are healing for our souls. It is okay to do things that we enjoy or that we love.

Let's choose love by choosing to take action when we see someone being hurt.

Let's uphold the purpose and philosophy of 7 Cups: which is to love one another.

I believe in the 7 Cups community. Let us choose to believe in one another and lift each other up.

That's what 7 Cups is all about.

That's what life is all about.

Let us all remember our collective purpose.

@Mercylistensalways Amen! Everyone deserves to have a support system and for some people it's 7 cups. I love knowing that someone cares.
