Transformation
This post is my reflection on me going from a shy , timed and lost member on cups to a powerful and well respected member on cups.
It’s like a seed Growing to a tree or a🐛to a butterfly, it been a journey of a lot of ups and downs. I been a member since 11/22/2022 but only was in to sc and other small thing,
I do not want to go into detail of what brought me here but I will say a couple a things. On 5/29 my life was turn upside down and part of my life that meant a lot from me was took away for 12 weeks. I was not handling change very well and I ended up up hurting people when I thought I was helping them. That’s all I am going to say.
On May 29 I came lost , confused and sraced. The first month was super hard for me. At first I stayed in shell and wanted to nothing to do with member side and I was also very skeptical of it, Over time I spend time in 50+ , mindfulness , sc , eg and support rooms and found them very helpful. I found the community in each of those rooms very supportive and helpful. Over time I went to other rooms that thought I would never went to but it me trying new things. I also felt the forums have been very useful to write down all the hard stuff during this journey. Some people know I track books I read in book section. The first Month filled with me finding place , accepting my big mistake , moved forward from it and took total responsibility of this mistake. I also took time to write sorry. Letters to people i felt I need to. When I first started I felt so bad not being able to say sorry but now I see it as it will mean more to these people since I changed so much.
Second month was even more impactful. The birthday events was a big test for me to really reflect on how much I came, doing high 5 and doing paper plate things was fun. The birthday event shown me that I could be big group with out being over whelmed. The others thing that. Helping me get though is hosting the sc and doing all. 4 Academy courses that I am now done with.
For while there I was think I am not ready or I am going to messed up agagin. Now with it been under 4 and shock on that it be here before I know it I am becoming more willing o accept it, I am to see this fear as chance good things happening,

@Reachforthestars00 what a lovely story of perseverance and transformation. I'm proud of you for continuing to stick at it and move into things that felt risky. Not easy to do!
And what a nice reflection that being in the spirit of the community celebration of our birthday was meaningful. That kind of note is not often captured, but I do think it is important and even therapeutic.
Glad you are here! And big congrats on all of your progress!
