Did you just earn a new badge??!! Let us know which badge, how you earned it & well give you a high five!

Hey everyone!

Happy to share I just got the Recruit and Feeback Badge!

I'm so happy that I received the 12 Steps Badge. 7 Cups is a really nice place :D

1 step toward being a better 7 cups community member - *check*

It's always good to review. If I had been perfect in chat then it wouldn't make sense. The nature of this site is that people come when they are feeling low, high, or anywhere in between. There is a lot of anger and resentment and a lot of negative feelings. I mean to be compasionate and always am here seeking company, but I have encontered situations where I was accused or I took something someone said to me as unnacceptable. Other times people were on here with bad intentions trying incite arguments and fights. Sometimes there are personality clashes, people's subjective biasis and prejudices interfering, and issues tugging at insecurities or sensitivities. I think a good rule of thumb that summarizes everything is to be supportive. That's tough. Not everyone on here knows how to be supportive. I hope to set a good example and recognize when others need support when I begin feeling happy and having fun. I cannot account for the negative judgements and subjective predjudices of others though. I can only control my actions or communications. I cannot control the interpretations and biases or predjudices of my peers.

I got a whole bunch of badges hehe. Congrats everyone!

You can't buy Happiness but you can buy Tea, and that's kind of the same thing.
