From one super kind, compassionate, appreciative, and eloquent hooman to another. 💛
Hiya @HealingTalk, we have a generous appreciative note for you by @lyricalAngel70 who appreciates you for *a lot* of things, as described in the following note! 💛
Angellll, I love how *honestly* you appreciate people when you actually appreciate them (lol), it is very evident in your messages that you set aside some time and really think of the person you're talking about, recall any "supportive" instances for the qualities you've picked and then beautify it more with your angelic words. The perfect recipe for a good appreciation, if you ask me! XD
I have a mental list of people around here who can be great teachers for "how to appreciate someone so that it *really* resonates and creates an impact on them" and you're one of them also. 💛
Keep being your angelic self. 🤗
Woohoo Marcelo! I loved reading this one for you. The fact that you always take time to let people know how massive their impact is, and how their presence matters, and receiving it back now~ you truly deserve it and more. You're in my "list" too, the one I mentioned above. :P Keep being awesome-sauze, you're a delight to have around! 💛
@lyricalAngel70
Thank you so much, Angel!
I feel very guilty and sorry for the long delay in answering your note.
I appreciate you very very much, and this delay doesn't express my appreciation in the slightest.
I wrote you a poem to express my gratitude for your kind initiative of sending me a note, and my appreciation for you and your exceptional qualities as a person, and as a volunteer here in Cups.
I hope you like it.
Here it goes:
To Lyrical Angel
Oh Lyrical Angel, my heart sings,
For the love and kindness that your note brings,
Your words, a balm to my tired soul,
A gift to my heart did send.
With every word, a warm breeze flowed,
And my spirit soared, like a bird in the glow.
For this, I thank you with all my heart,
And vow that our companionship will never part,
Your appreciation, so pure and true,
Is a source of comfort that I cherish too.
Oh Lyrical Angel, lovely and bright,
Your presence fills my heart with light.
Warm and compassionate, you spread your wings,
And with your kind words, my spirit sings.
Expressive and intelligent, you speak with grace,
Your every word, a beautiful embrace.
Articulate and wise, you share your heart,
Supporting everyone you meet, In their healing path.
Your words flow like honey, so lovely and sweet,
And your soul sings with compassion
for all with support needs.
For in a world where love is rare,
You are a big soul who always cares.
With your voice so articulate, and your mind so sharp,
You light up our world, and chase away the dark,
Your love is like a beacon, shining bright and clear,
Helping people through life's storms, with hope and no fear.
A constant presence, dependable and true,
Always there to lift anyone, when they are blue.
Conscientious and caring, you go the extra mile,
With you by their side, people can smile.
You are a true gem, a rare and precious find,
A constant source of comfort, and peace of mind,
Your kindness and dependability, a rock so steady,
A true angel on earth, a blessing so heady.
Lyrical Angel, you are a gift divine,
A beacon of hope in this world so mean.
With you, this Community is truly blessed,
We all sing to you with love and huge thanks.
So here's to you, Lyrical Angel, my colleague so dear,
May your life be filled with joy, and love sincere,
May your words continue to inspire, and light up our hearts,
And may nobody never
Forget the love you give,
To all of us.
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Sun: thank you so much for the time, enthusiasm kindness and effort you devote to this inspiring, motivating and community-bonding initiative!
@HealingTalk
Aww "community-bonding" love this! Safe to say, there's no community without (yo)u and I, so thank*you* as well for being a dear part of it!❤
I absolutely love your poem for Angel, so well written, with the sweetest choice of words, a powerhouse of talent, you are!🥳
@SunisshiningandsoareyouThank you Sun!
The feeling of Community, that we belong and are recognized as human beings (and not just roles) by our peers is therapeutic, motivating, and rewarding for volunteers like you and me, I think.
And this initiative is laser-focused on this mutual recognition and bonding.
I really think these feelings are fundamental for accomplishing the mission of any volunteer organization. At least that's my experience with choirs, small and large volunteer groups. philanthropic initiatives, and Cups' subcommunities.
Thank you, Sun, for the huge, high-quality work you do all around 7 Cups!

Hi @SparkyGizmo, you have been appreciated by @CompoundingHappiness :
“What do I say? I fall short of words describing my little friend here. How I wish there were more Gizzies on this platform and in real word. I am super glad that I met you here. Sparky not only improved my listening skills, but they encouraged me to move ahead and focus on bigger roles. They uplift me when I am low by sharing views from their journey on Cups, as they still check in on me from time to time, not as a mentor, but more like a friend. I remember being a newbie once and just watching Sparky spreading smiles in LSR. They not only encouraged me to speak as a newbie, but also made sure that I remain heard. I cannot thank them enough, thank you Sparky for being who you are as a person. “

Hi Nandita! 😊❤️ Thank you for this beautiful forum post! Thank you for spending your time to create this for me! I appreciate you! ❤️ Thank you for what you did for me today as a human being, as a teammate and all that you do in your role for this program to make sure others might be appreciated! Your work here matters and is so very valuable to lift spirits, play a fiduciary role to make sure that happens and bring us joy!
*high fives* 😊 and *hugs* ❤️
Hi Comphiiiiiii! 😊❤️ I really cannot thank you enough my wonderful friend! You have no idea what you have done for me as a human being, a teammate, a friend and as someone that tries very hard to help and support others here on 7 cups! This one "hit me were I live"! 😊❤️ Your kind words, message to me was so very powerful! Thank you for showing me that my efforts matter and that what it is that I do and how I do it around, here gets traction! It's as if I *heard angels sing* ❤️❤️❤️
I'm sooooo glad I met you too! You are such an amazing leader, friend and teammate! I for one love your leadership style and I love how you called me "your little friend". ❤️❤️❤️ Brilliant, just brilliant! Small can be very mighty around here! I love how you have moved forward, gained higher order roles and badges but are able to look behind you and uplift another! I love how you give credit where credit is due!
This for me, is yet another "feather in your cap" and shows your brilliant leadership style! One of the 7 cups core values is *we believe in equality*. Well, you don't just "talk it" you are living it! You are being the great example to all of the rest of us! I always say "be the example"! 😊❤️ Clearly, you underestimate the power or the value of no one here on this site! You see past any badges or lack there of.
I am so glad that I encouraged you to speak as well as made sure that you remained heard! 😊 The beauty of that also is that you saw it, felt it, understood how much that meant to you. You know how good that felt, never forgot it and so the "ripple effect" has happened. Just like skimming a rock across a pond and watching just how far and wide those ripples might go! This has become a part of your leadership style and you do the same for others! 😊❤️ I "see" you! 😊❤️😊
My friend, you have truly found your "voice" and I am so very grateful that I, in some way, was a part of that! I'm simply loving basking in your glow and watching you shine! It's a privilege to do so. You got this Comphiiiii!
I will forever remain your little friend and here for you with anything you might need! Thank you for being here for me also! ❤️ "One hand washes the other" around here and I'm grateful for your help, support, leadership and for being a safe and *soft spot for me to land* too.
Just as in real life, it's always good to hold hands, look both ways and cross that road together!
*high fives* 😊 and big *hugs* ❤️
I always have what I call "gratitude moments" at the end of each and every day. Thank you Nandita and Comphii for being part of mine and giving me even more to be grateful for! ❤️❤️❤️
@SparkyGizmo Thanks a lot 😄 ❤️ *high fives* 😊 and *hugs back* ❤️

Everbunny needs a somebunny and sometimes we gotta be that some-bunny for ourselves, which is super cool, I feel. 💜
Yay to being everyone's lovely bunny, and a double yay to being *your* own lovely bunny too, @amiablebunny4016, I am super duper proud of you also. 💜
Yes to being you, and choosing you, because yes yes, you deserve it and more at all times.💜
I feel, a lot of people are loved and cared for by alot of people, but it's on us to keep reminding ourselves, that *yes*, we *are* accepted, loved, appreciated and very very cared for and by many people or the meanie side of our brain overtakes makes it all blurry for us, *till* we remind ourselves again, and again, any reminders for this are less honestly. Andddd, any number of reminders is okay, we deserve them all, *you* deserve them all, lovely Bunny, YES you are soooo appreciated and loved by soooo many people (myself included, you know that already hehe). Thank*you* for helping us remind you that you're loved, by reminding it to yourself. 💜
Inspiring and lovely, as always. Sending lots of love and hugs your way. 💜
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou,
