Introducing the (new) New Member Guide!

...See more The Member Welcome Pack has served us well over the years, however, it's a bit long and can be difficult for members to ingest. Our Ambassador @Jenna created a fantastic guide that presents an overview of our platform and includes the most commonly requested information (here) [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1M53Nm5-pbtxx2_jKfXYgYzo3NgXxjNfMwfzVSRC1rZg/edit?usp=sharing]. It's a quick, easy, straightforward and visually friendly read with links to all the appropriate areas. As a community, let's switch to using this as our primary onboarding resource. (Note: the Welcome Pack will remain an active document, and it's linked at the bottom of the new guide.) If you're just joining 7 Cups, I recommend bookmarking this helpful resource, and if everyone can start sharing it around, we can get this in rotation ASAP! Thank you all for collectively caring for our community!

...See more Hello.. Life seems so pointless rn, I feel tired and sick all the time. I don't even feel like crying, my heart just aches.. It's really a tough time when your friends leave you as well as the person whom you loved. I never thought that people can even stop loving me but God proves me wrong everytime. But I'm positive, I'll try to be the best version of myself everyday. I hope one day someone will love me just the way I am❤
Love always

What is the role and responsibility of a good member?
by
Last post
 August 6th, 2023
...See more A lot of talks happen about the role and responsibility of a good listener, and a lot of training, guides, and support is available at 7cups on how to be a good listener. But I want to take a moment here, to discuss an equally important question! What is the role and responsibility of a good member? Members come at 7cups to seek support, but there must also be some responsibility of the seekers too. One is not free to behave in any rash way just because they are on their member account. There is decency required on the member account too. Furthermore (and it's a fact), those members who behave in a kind and respectful manner to listeners get more support than the ones who are disrespectful and judgmental (the giver is more motivated to give when the seeker is kind and respectful.) Please share your views about the role and responsibility of a good member, by replying to this thread!💛😇
Glad to be among you

Poems that can be written for you

...See more Non-binary, oh how you shine, Breaking free from labels, so divine. Neither he nor she, you embrace, A beautiful rainbow, full of grace. Society tries to fit us in a box, But non-binary folks refuse to be a paradox. Your gender expression knows no bounds, You exist outside of binary rounds. We're all human, unique and true, Infinite possibilities, all of us, who knew? Non-binary, you are a gift to us all, A reminder that we can stand tall. Embrace your truth, let your voice be heard, Non-binary, we celebrate you, you're not absurd. Together we walk, in solidarity, A world full of acceptance, that's our reality.

Our Mission

Last post
 February 15th, 2023
...See more I started this section and called it Glens nook. I plan on hanging out here more often. Ill listen, share my thinking with you, and hope to get to know many of you as we continue to grow our community. We wanted to share our mission with you before publishing it. We believe that every voice is important and every voice matters. Please share your thoughts on our mission below. Our Mission: 7 Cups of Tea is for anyone who wants to live in a world where the human experience is free from stigma and stereotypes and rich with love and support. A world where all 7 billion of us can grow and feel like we truly belong. We believe that each one of us is inherently valuable. We do not measure people based on where they are from, what they look like, or what position they hold. We recognize that people make sense in the larger story of their lives. We understand that people are complicated and that life is not simple or easy. We are all on the same path. Some of us are just starting out. Others are further down the road. No matter where we are, being kind, compassionate, and accepting of one another enables us all to grow. We do not tolerate people being mean, harmful, or rejecting of others. We do not judge or look down on people. Although there are forces that tend to disempower and create division, we stand together as we compassionately care for and champion one another. We see our differences as a strength. We are united in our shared goal of creating a place where all can find acceptance and be welcomed to a home where we all belong. Our Goal: We are living in a world with an immense love deficit, which means that none of us is receiving the love we need to reach our true potential, to truly thrive. Our goal is to build a support system, a web, that can hold every member of our world. We believe that we can fill that love-gap for every person in the world, either because they are an active member of our community or because they are touched personally by someone who has been empowered by 7 Cups of Tea. We will reach this goal when we provide 100 million positive and supportive conversations each and every week.
