A warm welcome to reader,

Hi, I’m Daisy. I’m 23. I have work experience in customer service. I have taken a career break to pursue my master's in criminology. I decided to pop on 7 Cups while I prepare for my entrance exam. Wish me luck! 😊

I try to offer members a safe, comfortable space where they can share whatever is on their mind, without fear of judgment.

I will not be able to offer any solution to your problems, however, I can offer you a listening ear, my understanding, and supportive words.

Sometimes, having someone simply listen can make things feel a little lighter. 🌼

Empathy & Compassion: Understanding without excusing
IDG 7 Cups Hub / by FriendlyDaisy003

...See more Empathy allows us to understand experiences and emotions that shape people, however, I wonder where do we draw the line? Do we excuse and enable harmful behaviour in disguise of empathy? People carry different experiences and wounds into their relationships. Sometimes these experiences influence how we respond to conflict, rejection, or disappointment. We may bleed our wounds on other people. Understanding the context can help us approach others with compassion, however, understanding why someone behaves a certain way does not mean we must overlook the impact they have on us. I believe it is important to distinguish between responsibility and blame. We may not choose the painful experiences that shape us, and working through them can take time, will take support, and efforts. Yet, as we become more aware of our behavious and its effects on others, we can begin to work towards a healthier way of responding. Trauma may help explain a reaction, however, that does not make it automatically acceptable. Compassion also requires boundaries. We can care about someone and acknowledge their struggles without accepting repeated harm. Sometimes, setting boundaries allows us to protect our well-being while recognising the other person's humanity. Perhaps, empathy is not about choosing between understanding someone and holding them accountable. It is about making room for both, without allowing one to erase the other. I'd like to end this discussion with something that I've been reminding myself to overcome certain flaws in my behaviour; "as we become an adult, it becomes less about what happened to us and more about what we choose to do". 1. Where do you think the line should be drawn between empathising with someone's struggle and excusing or enabling their behavious? 2. Have you ever been in a situation where you allowed someone to cross your boundaries and enabled their hurtful behaviour in diguise of empathy? 🌸🌸🌸

Self-Awareness: Are we discovering ourselves or defining our limitations?

...See more Self-awareness is perceived as the ability to understand our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, however, can becoming more aware of ourselves sometimes make us more critique of self. We might mistake learned patterns for permanent personality traits, limiting our potential without even realising it. For example, someone who repeatedly avoids conflict might begin to identify as an avoidant person. This label may influence them to approach future situations as an avoidant. Instead of recognizing avoidance as a response they have developed, they may accept accept it as an unchangeable part of who they are. I'd like to offer a correlation with neuroplasticity here. Our brains can adapt through learning and experience, meaning that some patterns of thinking and responding can change over time. This does not mean we can change every aspect of ourselves simply through willingness or that change can happen automatically. However, it is a reminder that our current habits do not necessarily define our future capabilities. Perhaps genuine self-awareness involves observing ourselves without immediate judgement of what we discover. We can acknowledge our actions, take responsibility, and believe that growth is possible. 1. How can we distinguish self-criticism from self-awareness? 2. What helps us move from acknowledging a limites pattern to practising a different response? Thank you taking the time to read my post, lovely people. 🌸
