What are you "known for" on 7 Cups??

@Heather225

I love welcoming new users! 💝🥰

I want to leave behind a non-judgemental space for people to feel safe and loved <3

@Heather225

I would love to answer this great question.

I hope when people see my username, they think of a quiet, caring and safe corner where they can pause and breathe. Someone who listens with patience, compassion, and an open heart. I try my best to offer understanding, kindness, and a calm space where people feel actually heard.

If I could leave behind a legacy here, I would want it to be simple but meaningful - that someone who felt alone found a moment of comfort in a conversation, a message, or a few supportive words. If even a handful of people remember that there was someone who genuinely cared and listened patiently without judgment, that would be more than enough for me. I would feel grateful.

@Heather225 I don't know if I've interacted enough yet to really build a reputation here, honestly xD

As for how I want to be remembered.. I really relate to Muhammad Ali's poem about what he wanted his legacy to be. He wrote...

He took a few cups of love

Very good post H!

1. It's hard to say what other people think of me as I do only have my own perspective so I'll say what others have told me repeatedly instead of focusing on how I see myself. I've been told that I am a very fast typist (I use glide typing on my phone and that can be quite a bit faster so in group chats I tend to write very long messages". I've been told that I have a presence and show a lot of empathy and understanding. And lastly I've been told that I am very active lol.

While all of those statements are true or at least I hope they are true. How I see myself is related to a lot of the stuff that I do beyond just member chats. While I am grateful for every member I've been able to talk to and every member I'll talk to in the future. I think a lot about the effect I have had on other liateners. Both as a listener mentor/coach and as a listener in the AE team. I also think about the forum posts I've created to support listeners in improving. I hope that when people see my username they know that I will give my full attention and give a proper response out of care. And most likely that they will get a wall of text lol.

2. My impact is a much simpler question. I hope I've improved the listener quality by creating resources and talking to listeners individually on their journey to help support others. Both on cups and eventually in real life and I hope that the world will become even a slightly better place from the support I've given to my members. I know I can't solve everyone's problems but I hope I made someone's day and life at least a little bit better. I care less about legacy and more about the impact. I don't mind if I'm not remembered and forgotten. As long as the help I did along the way had a real effect on people here.

1. What do people think of when they see your username? What is your reputation?

I get told a lot of times that people like how I interact and post on the forums. I post a lot of GIFs that cupsers amuse and relate with. My members like how I don't put on a filter and I'm honest in my conversations.

2. What would you like your 7 Cups legacy to be? How do you want to be remembered by this community? What impact do you hope to leave behind?

I would want to leave a legacy of joy and faith. I want to be remembered as for my name, TC is a brand at this point. I have received lots of love for my pfp through these years. I have always strived to help people feel heard and be there for them in whatever capacity.

Everyone knows I'm the class clown. 😂

I want the laughter to be my legacy, but also... Hopefully people have their life enriched somehow by knowing me. Whether it's from encouragement, insight, simply listening, or my general positive non-judgmental philosophy.

1. What do people think of when they see your username? What is your reputation? I'm not really sure what people think when they see my username. My reputation is probably that I'm kind, understanding and empathetic - hopefully anyway 😅

2. What would you like your 7 Cups legacy to be? That I made a difference in someone's day or helped in some way.  That they felt heard

I'm learning so much about all of you (and really enjoying it!)!

And I am very happy to see all the responses to each other, too! Yay, community!

Please keep sharing!

@Heather225 my pfp is from a horror manga but people have pry seen the character before

@Heather225

 my username is ironic actually. I did not make it, the site did,  but I am an over THINKER.

i find peaches to be soft and not intimidating. And a pretty color. 

I would hope that people see me just as that. A gentle person and well has her struggles. I’m there when I can be and I try to make friends where I can 🍑 ❤️
