Thank you to...

I want to say thank you to my best friend. She's been by my side for 20+ years. I can't imagine my life without her nor know what I'd do without her. I'm appreciative for my soulmate/best friend. No one will ever come close to what she means to me.

I am grateful that I have my mum,partner and friends

~ I'm grateful for my junior high teacher, Mr. W. He taught me not only about science, but how to love myself. I wouldn't be where I was today if not for him <3 ~

Tbh I am not sure where to start with this. I'm grateful for all the amazing friends and listeners and members and people I meet on this lovely 7 cups site. I'm grateful for my family and the people who I have in my life no matter how big or small impact they have in my life. I'm grateful for this amazing life that was given to me and I'm grateful for the people that do what they do best in life, log on and spend time with people on here helping others just like me. :)

I want to say thank you to my mother, for taking care of me and understanding me in my depressing moments. <3

Thank you to my "little" dysfunctional family from school. They always brighten my day and make life worth living

First off I would like to thank God for His love in Christ, and for the Bible which has been my inspiration and my companion.

I would also like to thank God for this incredibly beautiful creation, specially the birds.

I would also like to thank 7 Cups for starting off something good and for the staff who manage it.

I am going to send a thank you card, but I'll also say thanks here, to a supervisor I had who was helpful when I was dealing with an illness. Didn't give me a hard time when asking for time off for appointments or extra time to get my exercise in.

Thanks to everyone who has ever believed in me, even when I have not.
And artists, musicians, actors, writers of all kinds. People sensitive to life.
For the kind people in life, the ones who act on compassion (including everyoe involved in this site and community).
For some reason I also want to thank PJ Harvey, so thanks, lady! :)

Thank you to...

... @ZaraSmiles for making this lovely thread, and for being your lovely self. You are the kindest, most thoughtful person and you encourage people to be so friendly, it's amazing.

... @Iara for listening to me when I was having a personal crisis regarding my role on the site. You always know how to make someone feel appreciated and heard, myself included. You are honest and considerate, and someone I am so grateful for. I know I don't express it enough, but I really appreciate you and all you do.

... @OrunLeon for not being as scary and mean as you were when I first joined the site. Thank you for being so nice and friendly now, and for always being able to make me laugh with your wonderful banter. You are so intelligent and while your banter has a joking tone to it at times, it's also really thought-provoking and I appreciate it a lot.

... @Cadence for always being such an encouraging person! I don't think you realize how much of an impact you've had on me, but whenever you call me a disney princess, it puts the biggest smile on my face. Partly because I adore disney princesses, and partly because it's nice to get such a compliment from someone I admire so greatly. You make me feel valued, which is something I will always cherish.

... @Roadie for making me a smarter person, and for being so inspiring. You are someone I've always admired very much, and I always look forward to seeing what you've got to say. I've always come away having learned something from your forum posts, and the way you manage to bring support into the forums is something I find truly inspiring. Thank you for making that legendary forum upvote post, and for being legendary in general.

... @MayaRainbow2 for being a true mole model! I love talking to you, it really brightens up my day. You are unbelievably loyal and caring, and the way you deal with conflicts in the group support rooms never ceases to amaze me. Your rainbow double standard theory makes me laugh whenever I think about it, but I also can't help but nod when it comes to mind because it is also completely true. Thank you for being such a fun little rebel, it's an honour to call you my friend.

... @Dillion for being so helpful and dedicated. I really appreciate all that you do for the community, from discussions to projects. You approach everything with bundles of enthusiasm that I don't think I could ever muster up, and I'm in awe of your ability to make things flourish. you are a wonderful mentor and a wonderful guy, and the site is incredibly lucky to have you.

... @Lyra for being such a genuine and real person. I'm not sure if you'll see this because you've deactivated, but I feel the need to at least put my appreciation for you out there into the universe. You've shaped my 7 Cups journey so much, more than I'm pretty sure you know. You are someone I've admired even since before you were a teen star. You've always got insightful thoughts to share in the forums and in chatroom conversations, and I appreciate that you don't shy away from reality. You are willing to confront issues at their root in order to come to solutions, and manage to remain completely respectful at the same time. I don't think there will ever be a time where I'm not in awe of you, Lyra. Thank you for being you.

... @Celaeno for being a remarkable member of our community. I've never really had an interaction with you before, apart from in an introduction thread, if I recall this memory correctly. However, I've seen you everywhere on this site. The amount of support you demonstrate to your peers could teach a few listeners a thing or two. you've turned the feed into such a lovely place, and you make the forums all warm and fuzzy. You've also got the most welcoming profile I've ever seen from a member. You've proved to us all that regardless of who we are and what positions we may hold in a society, we can have an impact. Your impact on our community here has been tremendously positive.

There are so many wonderful people on this site who I could write appreciative notes to, so I'll have to come back another day!
