For a Berry Lovely Hooman! 💖
For you~ @exuberantblackberry9105 🥰
Hi hi everyone else coming across, more for you at the bottom of this post! 💖
Berryyyyy, I've been meaning to write to you since forever lol but here I am, a little late :0
The peer appreciation program is on a hault but but we don't have to delay our appreciations for it, alsooooo, I think it miight be a liiiitle looong to contain within a few graphics in that thread xD soooooo this is my super delightful opportunity for a special forum shout out for a berry special *you*! 💖
Dearesttt Berry, 🫐✨
First off, I want to say thank you for being you, no really, I mean it, you add to the world what only you can, you have a special place here reserved just for you and the world truly is a better place with you in it, so yes, thank youuuu for being *youuu*. 🤗
Your honesty and openness about your feelings and experiences are like a ray of sunshine breaking through a cloudy sky, and I am genuinely grateful that you share your journey with us~ like in your bio, that you've organized sooo nicely hehe, and even in forums in general (lol I'm a forum-wanderer and I cant help but notice beautiful peopleeeee like you shining soooo brightly here).
I won't specify what threads xD but in general, you always have soooo much depth in your expression. I admire how you reflect on things, experiences, emotions etc, with so much authenticity.
You have a way with words that can turn even the heaviest thoughts into something a little lighter, and that’s a beautiful gift, I must say! 💖
I understand how tough it must feel to navigate through the loneliness and self-doubt, especially when it seems like the world is moving on while you’re standing still, like time is running and you cannot seem to make enough sense of it. It’s completely okay to have those days where you feel like the weight of everything is just too much, too much to bear, too much to hold on with.
I see you, and I hear you. Your struggles are real. Your experiences are true. Your feelings are valid. No matter what anyone says, if you feel something, it's there for a reason and it's so brave of you to acknowledge that feeling, and let it pass through you. 💖
You’ve created a lovely little haven here on 7 Cups, where you can truly be yourself, as you mentioned in your bio and I'm so so happy that you are here. 💖 It’s heartwarming to know that you find comfort and support among friends here, and I hope you know how much you mean to all of us too, or if I have to speak for only myself currently, yessss, with everything in me~ *you* *are* *a* *blessing*! 💖
You have a talent for seeing the good in people, reminding others of their worth, and that is something truly special. A lot of people can do that, but the 'special' here is just your unique ability to make people feel seen in ways they probably didn't, plus how genuine and honest your words/ actions feel!
Your kindness and ability to lift others up, even when you’re feeling down, shows just how biiiiiig and beautiful and wholesome your heart is.
The peer appreciation team is extra blessed to have your diligent, creative, lovely self with us! 🎀
I know you've said it multiple times that you are not good at words or saying nice things etc, but this is one thing I bigtime disagree with you about lol~ and nope, you cannot change my mind about it 😛 ~ For I say only what I see, and I see you sharing kind words, sweet affirmations, observant thoughts, genuine appreciations and heartfelt gratitude with sooo many people, and so often! 💖
You aren't just good at it, you're brilliant at ittt, my friend, and I do not say any of this lightly!
Sometimes you don't even need words to make someone's day, the sweet little upvotes you sooo generously deliver are already creating countless ripples of warmth! 🥰
I admire your strength in trying to find reasons to keep going, even when it feels incredibly hard to. Life can throw some curveballs, and it’s not always fair (really isn't smh). Completely valid to feel exhausted of trying too. Sometimes we can really use a break from everything we are supposed to deal with, and hey, you deserve the break too!
And hey, if school feels like a never-ending cycle of stress (which it really can be for a number of reasons 🥲) do remember: you are so much more than your grades, and how school makes you feel about yourself.
You have dreams, passions, and a unique perspective that no one else has. It is also super okay if you're currently not sure about any of it (spoiler alert- I don't think many people are~ most just try to make do with what they can 👀)
Try taking things one step at a time okieee and i hope you won't forget to celebrate the little wins through each day. 💖
The world needs more of your voice, your creativity, and your genuine spirit. To put it simply, *you*!
So keep shining your light, even on the days when it feels dim. Not to sound all cliche lol, but it's a fact, stars do shine the brightesttt when in the darkest hour of the night! ✨
Another fact, no matter how long and dark the night feels, there's always another morning and the sun does always shine. (Good thing you're not in one of the regions of the world where the sun isn't out for longer periods of time lol so I could use this fact 😭 ~ but hey, even there, eventually it does come up 😛)
Precious *you*, while you do deserve to have better people around in your off-cups life also, it’s perfectly fine to lean on your 7 Cups family, you deserve having a safe space where you can be yourself, and feel true to yourself. Plus we are all hooman here as well. (Let's hope Noni doesn't see this and feel excluded now💀) 💖
We’re all here for you, cheering you on every step of the wayyyy!
You are worthy of love, support, and every amazing thing life has to offer.
Okie now a little activity time~ *holds your hand virtually* Take a deep breath with me? 🥰 okie and now *breathe in* *breathe out* anddd.... once more~ you did amazzinggg!! 💖
Hold onto that hope, and know that brighter days are ahead. You are loved, you are important, and you matter more than you may realize.
Life is fleeting, it's daunting, there's challenges and sometimes it can feel like a lot to deal with. However, life is also vast and full of potential for joy, kindness, and love. You haven't yet encountered all the wonderful experiences waiting for you, nor have you met every person who will embrace and love you just as you are. (We don't know if they are here yet, but, wouldn't hurt to leave a little room open for them, mhm?)
I hope you'll keep your heart open to the possibilities that lie ahead. While uncertainties can feel daunting and mentally draining, they also leave room for unexpected joys and connections that can enrich our life in ways we can't yet imagine.
Such is the paradoxical nature of the "what if" questions I feel. We often ask ourselves "what if... this goes wrong?" or "what if ... i fail?" but "what if" we ask ourselves "what if ...this goes way better than I couldve ever planned it to be?" Orr "what if...I learn something useful to apply in practice next time?" ~ "what if there's only one slice of pizza left?" ... then sun will share! 😭 ~ depends on what we are asking! xD
There are countless beautiful moments yet to unfold, lovely, and nuuuu, I'm not trying to "predict" this~ as much *cool* I'd sound if I did and was right about it and some time after you'd probably think to yourself "okay no, sun wasn't just saying all that for the sake of it, there actually was some truth to it😮" but hoping, manifesting, wanting, rooting~ whichever way you see it hehe, all of it for you, simply because if there's one thing I'm abso-freaking-lutely certain about, it's that YESsssss, big time, major major capital yesss, you deserve it, all the good, all the great, all the best in life, always! 💖
Hoping that you'd continue to hold onto hope. Embrace the journey ahead with curiosity and optimism, for you never know when something amazing might come your way.
(Because?)
Mhmmm okay again *holds hands virtually*, say with me?
YES, you (you can replace this with "I") deserve it! 💖
There's so much more that can be said here and I want to, but theres not enough words to describe how impactful your presence is, how wonderful you truly are and how much gratitude I have for you! 🥰
But I tried xD and you best believe there's more in store! 💖
Meanwhileeeee *passes tissue box*
And a biiig supply of warm *hugs* 🤗🤗🤗
I adore you, you deserve the world and I hope you'll too see the good in yourself more often! 🥰
Sending soooo much love your way! 💖
Okay and now everyone else seeing this, if you've read it this far~ thank youuuu 🤗 whether you know this wonderful hooman here or not, it'll be super appreciated to shower some love on her. 🥰
🤗*a hug parcel for you*🤗 even if you're just passing by!

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
🤗💖ღ(´͈ ᵕ `͈ ღ)💖
@VictoriaLove7 what a beautiful description of the graphic sunnie has created! 🌞🫐 sadly, i suck at being kind to myself, but yeah, i'm here and trying to keep going. aww victy that's so sweet, but please don't thank me for it because i wasn't my idea. i probably should start using that thread again though. thanks for the sweet little reminder hehe. 🌈🌈
@exuberantBlackberry9105
Oftentimes, kind people are kind to others but being hard on themselves, but know that you deserve that kindness too, Berry ᕠ( ᐛ )ᕤ🫐
Yusss, Sunshine 🌞💖 created a super cute graphic that represents you 🫐 and herself 🌞💖, and these emojis you typed look cute ‘🌞🫐’ ∩(◕ヮ◕)∩

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
such a lovely post sunny 🌞. You are super cute 🥰 . Keep shining bright ☺️.
and a big shout out to berry . You totally deserve it. 🙈
@uniqueGrace8272
Awww as are you, Graceyyy, thank youu for joining! 🤗💖
@uniqueGrace8272 thank you! ❤️
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou awh sun, this is so sweet! 🥹💕 i really have no idea what to say, how to thank you or how to explain how much this means to me. i'm so sorry i'm taking over a month to respond to you, sorry for being this late. honestly, i saw this post just minutes after you posted it, and i had a big smile on my face and was left utterly speechless with no idea what to say, so i just didn't say anything. and i've been going through a lot and it's hard for me to believe someone would actually believe this good stuff about me. i'm really sorry. but i thought about it and realised i don't want to come across as ungrateful or ignorant, so i figured i'd come here and say something. i should've found time for this earlier and i'm sorry. but here i am now, trying to figure out something to say. i am definitely not good with words, you're just so good though! 💖
haha, you've been meaning to write to you since forever? well, you did it and you're not late at all. i've been meaning to reply to you since forever and i am extreeemly late. and i'm very sorry. thanks a lot for this lovely appreciation for me even when the peer appreciation program was on a halt. such a long and sweet appreciation, i really do appreciate it a lot. 🥰 you just brought a smile to my face, and it's not at all easy for someone to make me smile so much – i'm the kinda person who rarely ever smiles. haha, love how you use 'berry' instead of 'very'. it sounds really cute. 🫐🍓
oh lol, what do i even add to the world? i don't think i add anything except one more creature on this overpopulated planet. nah, the world would be just the same without me in it, i know. maybe some few people's lives are better with me in it (and many people's lives are worse with me in it), but you're talking about me like i'm having some global impact, lol. it's really sweet and kind of you to say though, and i appreciate you saying that. but remember, you're sun, so it's really you who has a global impact and you who make the world a better place by shining so bright 🌞 – not me, i'm berry and i'm meant to be eaten haha. 🫐
i'm happy to share my journey with 7 cups and i'm lucky i have cups with me as part of the journey hehe. i wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for cups, i'm serious. i'm glad you find my bio well-organised, but it's really old and has stuff that doesn't even hold true anymore, so i gotta update it. i can see you've really read my bio well and based this appreciation on it, so i really need to change it lol. hi forum-wanderer! i do that sometimes too hehe. ooh, depth in my expression? i'm not sure what that means, but thanks a lot. 💛💛
seriously? i can word things in a way that can turn heavy thoughts into something a little lighter? this can't be. i know i've seen you do that a lot, but me? nope. i'm glad you feel that way though. haha yes, i've said multiple times that i'm not good at words, and i'll say it again. you're allowed to disagree with me lol, that's perfectly okay. i'm still really happy to hear that you think i'm good with words. wait, you think i'm brilliant at it? alright, but may i ask what you are then? you are just so good at wording things so sweetly, turning heavy thoughts into something lighter, and always phrasing things in a way that makes others smile! so if i'm brilliant, what are you? 🤔
"Sometimes you don't even need words to make someone's day, the sweet little upvotes you sooo generously deliver are already creating countless ripples of warmth!" aww that's so sweet. i'm glad the upvotes help, i really do love upvoting anything i come across that i support. that goes for you too, by the way! all the sweet upvotes and kind messages! 💙
"it seems like the world is moving on while you’re standing still, like time is running and you cannot seem to make enough sense of it." that is sooo true, time truly is running and i can't make sense of it. thanks for understanding. thank you so much for all your understanding and validation there, it really means a lot. i do have days where the weight of everything is too much to bear, and those days are unfortunately becoming increasingly more common. so i appreciate you saying all that. people do say that i have no reason to feel a certain way, so thank you. currently having trouble letting the feelings pass through me though, but thank you. 💛💛💛
i'm glad i have 7 cups, a place where i can be honest and real without worrying about what people are gonna think. it's nice to hear that you're happy to have me here, thank you so much. i'm incredibly grateful for the comfort and support i find here sometimes. it's sadly not the same as it used to be and a lot has changed but seeing familiar people like you around here definitely helps. thanks for being here on cups for so long. 🤗
"You have a talent for seeing the good in people, reminding others of their worth, and that is something truly special. A lot of people can do that, but the 'special' here is just your unique ability to make people feel seen in ways they probably didn't, plus how genuine and honest your words/ actions feel! Your kindness and ability to lift others up, even when you’re feeling down, shows just how biiiiiig and beautiful and wholesome your heart is. The peer appreciation team is extra blessed to have your diligent, creative, lovely self with us!" aww thank you, that's so sweet of you. i'm happy to hear that from you and i'm glad my words feel genuine and honest. hehe i love being on the peer appreciation team and i hope to see you there again, i miss seeing you on pat. but i understand you're busy and have lots to handle. 🫂🫂
trying to find reasons to keep going... no need to admire my strength in that because i've given up on finding such reasons. right now, just existing till i figure things out, to be honest. "Sometimes we can really use a break from everything we are supposed to deal with, and hey, you deserve the break too!" totally agree hehe. but i can never truly get a break. i have a break from school right now, but i still have a never-ending list of things to deal with, such as my mother, lol.
i can agree school is a never-ending cycle of stress, sometimes it's a good escape from home but it's extremely stressful. and you might think i'm more than my grade, but everyone else sadly disagrees. especially since i'm going to 10th grade in april which is super important and my marks are everything. i need to score well and my marks hold my future. i appreciate you saying that though. 💛
you sure it's okay if i'm not sure about my dreams and passions and whatever? most people my age seem pretty sure, and even if i'm not sure, i'm expected to have some idea, which i have none of. you think most people aren't really sure and are pretending or something? oh lol, i dunno how to take things one step at a time, you gotta teach me that. and goodbye to celebrating little wins, my mother's teaching me to feel like those don't matter the slightest bit.
hmm can i ask why you think the world needs me? i don't think it does. of course, stars do shine the brightest during the darkest hour of the night, and literally, i certainly agree. 🌟 i'm not sure what it means metaphorically though. and i know that literally there's always another morning and it will be sunny again, but not sure about it metaphorically. ☀️ and i do love cold dark nights lol, i'm a night owl who loves the cold (the cold of where i live) and somehow i like darkness in the literal sense (i mean nighttime darkness, cloudy sky and less lighting unless i'm trying to study), most definitely not in the metaphorical sense. 🌃🌦️
hehe, better people in my off-cups life! i can only dream of that, but that's not happening. i try leaning on cups but that's hard sometimes and it's not the same as it used to be. but i'm very grateful for it still being here and for people like you. thanks for everything. "Plus we are all hooman here as well. (Let's hope Noni doesn't see this and feel excluded now 💀)" woah, well said! i love that. you're so thoughtful to even think of noni lol. i truly hope noni doesn't see this and feel excluded lol. 🤖
brighter days... i wonder if they lay ahead or have gone behind. but thank you for making me feel loved and important, sunnie buddy. thank you so much. 🤗 i agree life is daunting and challenges feel like a lot to deal with when there's nothing left of us. "life is also vast and full of potential for joy, kindness, and love. You haven't yet encountered all the wonderful experiences waiting for you, nor have you met every person who will embrace and love you just as you are." well, i dunno. i can only hope you're right and i'm not living for nothing. joy, genuine kindness and unconditional love, those are all so rare in this world where people can be so selfish and cruel and only think of the personal benefits of doing something. that makes genuine kindness one of the rarest things on the planet and leaves me wondering about the hidden motive of someone's "kindness". my mother makes me believe it doesn't exist. i know she's trying to protect me, but it makes me lose all hope. because maybe there isn't potential for joy, kindness and love. maybe all my wonderful experiences are already in the past and nothing's waiting for me. maybe i will never meet a person who will embrace and love me just as i am. because maybe kindness and love doesn't outside of 7 cups, we never know.
i try to leave a little room for them, and it is hard and painful. "I hope you'll keep your heart open to the possibilities that lie ahead. While uncertainties can feel daunting and mentally draining, they also leave room for unexpected joys and connections that can enrich our life in ways we can't yet imagine." i try, sunnie friend, i do. but it's so hard. you're right about the the paradoxical nature of what if questions. but we all know how those usually go, they're usually always something bad. "'what if there's only one slice of pizza left?' ... then sun will share! 😭 ~ depends on what we are asking!" you can have your pizza, sun, no need to share that, i know you love pizzas and i'm not allowed to eat pizzas. never had one lol in as long as i can remember. 🍕
oh hello there, cool future-predicting sun! ✨ you're sun, and the solar system is built around you, so who know, maybe you can predict the future. let's just hope there are good things about to happen and i'm not doing this all for nothing. i dunno anymore. "yesss, you deserve it, all the good, all the great, all the best in life, always!" thanks though, that's sweet. 💛 "Hoping that you'd continue to hold onto hope. Embrace the journey ahead with curiosity and optimism, for you never know when something amazing might come your way." i'm trying... but i dunno, it hard. thank you so much for your kindness and sweetness though. 💛💛
"There's so much more that can be said here and I want to, but theres not enough words to describe how impactful your presence is, how wonderful you truly are and how much gratitude I have for you! But I tried." nooo this is more than enough, sunnie, you're doing amazing and making me smile. *big supply of warm hugs back to you* 🤗🫂
you write the best appreciations, sun, i mean it. 🥰 i've seen so many of your appreciations on the peer appreciation program and they're just absolutely lovely. i remember you wrote me one in april last year and i still see that sometimes and smile. your messages are just so sweet and detailed, and you sound genuine instead of just saying good stuff for the sake of it. they sound real, you know – not fake and ingenuine just to butter people up. your sweet, encouraging words actually feel genuine. the way you put in all the good and bad stuff, instead of being all positive and good all the time. that means a lot to me because it's something i rarely see. most people are usually either all positive or all negative, so there's something super special about you. and no, i'm not saying this with some bad intention or something, i really mean it. you write so well, sun! 💖
so this is my best attempt to respond to your kindness and love. thank you so much for it all. and again, huge apologies for my late reply. oh my god and that gif – sun, are you trying to drown me in it? it's so cute! thank you so much sunnie buddy! 💕💕
I may not have met Berry yet, but they sound like an awesome person! <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 with the way that sunnie talks about me, of course i do, lol. but i do have a not-so-awesome side as well. thanks anyway. nice to meet you, by the way. 💙
Don’t we all hehe
Nice to meet you, too! <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 i guess we do. 💙
This is lovely. I can tell how awesome Berry is from reading this post and the interactions
