Chat Between @jesusredeemedme2425 and @aurastorm
I thought that I would make us a penpal chat, because I love talking to you and I’d love to get to know you more! Please feel free to ignore if you don’t want to, or if you don’t fee comfy. No pressure! <
That's such a sweet idea 😮🌷 it honestly made me smile! I'd love to be your penpal and chat more. Getting to know each other sounds like a lot of fun. And thank you for inviting me into that space with you. 🤭🌷💌
So… where shall we begin? Favorite books? Weird dreams? Secret snack obsessions? You lead the way! hehe
Awww yay! <3
You’re an incredible person! The honor is mine hehe
ALLLLLL of it! <3
My favorite book is “The Girl Who Owned a City”, a kids/YA (not sure) novel.
I had a dream about singing elephants recently lol
I LOVE strawberry mochi! And I eat cereal dry, by the handful, like a weirdo XD
Wbu???? <3
You are a very sweet person, i love your soul. Its magical 🪄
Hehe Confession time 😦: my favourite books are "The Challenger deep" and "Five feet apart".
Thats a very fun dream, elephants are very cute too 😦, i had a dream that i can fly and it was the best 🤭
I eat cereal that way toooo. And me and my sister used to do flavoured ice cubes and just add em to drinks or just eat em 🧊🍧
Aww thank you! <3 My soul is magical? :)
Never heard of them lol
Dumbo! Hehe
How did you make the flavored ice cubes?
Look up a Frillback pigeon. They’re so pretty! <3
I just counted all my penpal chats, and if I counted right, I have 26! Lol
I have a challenge for you :)
It is magical! 🪄 and i love dumboo it's one of my favourite characters ever 🐘
You just put whatever you like, like pieces of lemons, peaches..etc, or you can use soda drinks or any other thing 🧊
Aww those are so cute and majestic looking pigeons 🕊
Thats impressive! 😮
A challenge? What is it? I'd love a challenge. 😮
Awww thank you :)
Maybe I should draw Dumbo… Hmm :)
Ooh that sounds good <3
Can you make ice cubes out of ice cream??
Right??? Now look up a watermelon tourmaline :)
Some write every day or so, some of them only pop their head in every so often, and some… IDK if they’re even active anymore, because I haven’t heard from them in many months. So it’s actually a lot less than you think. :)
I challenge you to make a penpal chat with someone new :) Give them an “out”, in the first post, if they don’t want to or don’t feel comfy. Make a new friend! <3
You totally should! And then show it here in cups i'd love to see a Dumbo drawing 🤍
Hmm maybe 🧊 i think ice cream cubes do exist but i've never tried one
Oh woah those look soo so prettyyy 🍉 i love those things, kinda magical too.
I get you. But still i think its amazing and i love this idea of connecting. 🫂🫂🫂
Ooh thats interesting, imma try to do that, not this week tho, its a tough week and idont want to make anyone feel ignored by me.
You inspire me, Kiara i hope you know that 🤍
I wish I could, but it’s not safe to post pics :(
Try it and let me know if it works hehe
Right??? Now look up a black opal. A friend recommended I look that one up :)
Right??? <3
It’s all good, take your time :) In the meantime, anyone who’s caught your eye? (Not in a romantic sense, of course.) Whose personality fits yours, and whose posts make you happy when you see them? :)
I do?
Hmm you're right. But still draw it and keep it and tell me about how you did after 🤭
I'll try to do it and see if it works 🧊
Omg thats sooo pretty, imagina that on a necklace that would look so so beautiful.
Hmm there are many that are nice, kind and funny. No one specific on mind right now, but im sure it will come ✨️
Ofcourse you do, you are kind, sweet, funny, and smart, i bet alot of people agree too. You do make a big difference, and I'm glad i've met you here in cups. 🫂
Hopefully I’ll draw tonight, and if not tonight, maybe tomorrow. Remind me hehe
Ooh… Put them in Coke! Instant Coke float <3
Right??? <3
Sounds good to me <3
Awww thank you! <3 I sometimes wonder if I’m annoying people tho, and I feel the naysayers harder than the ones who love me, yk?
Do tell me if you draw it, i'd love to know 🥰 it would be fun to draw.
Ooh that could taste good 🧊 i definitely should if i get a chance to do it.
🫂🫂🫂
I hear you. But just so you know you’re not annoying. You’re warm, thoughtful, and genuinely fun to talk to. The fact that you care so much is part of what makes you so lovely and magical too 🪄
I know, its wild how our brains turn up the volume on the negative and whisper the positive, right?
But I promise, the people who love you see all the good in you even when you’re having a hard time seeing it yourself. <3
I just wanted to give you a heads up (I’m sending this to all my active penpal chats):
I’ve been on 7Cups a lot lately and typing is bothering my carpal tunnel. I’ve also been reaching burnout, and haven’t been accomplishing things I want to do lol!
So I may be slow in responding, while giving my hand and my mind a bit of a rest. Please be patient with my slower responses! <3
ALSO… If I ever take longer than maybe 5 days to respond, the notification may have disappeared. Just send me a reminder post to send me a new notification, to remind me to respond :)
Thanks for understanding! <3
Thats totally understandable, no worries on that. Take your time, no need to rush on things 🫂🫂🫂
Tonight’s challenge: Knock out at least one “Needs Reply” post <3
I was thinking about doing an interview series with members and listeners. Thoughts?
Thats an amazing idea, i'd support it 🤍
I hope you've been well and okay 🌷
Would you want to be interviewed? I think you’d give a lot of good information, given your place in history atm. If you’d be comfy with that <3
I’m tired but good! Doing lots of art lately lol
You?
Ah, i hope you are getting enough rest tho. Ooh art sounds great. 🤍🫂
Idk if im up for it at the moment, i'm struggling a bit these days.
Not really lol
Awww how come? :(
I hope you do get the rest you deserve 🤍🫂🌷
I just miss life. I miss waking up and not being terrified of remembering. I miss mum, I miss my siblings ,I miss home, and I miss every silly thing atm.
Thank you <3
What are you scared to remember? (You don’t have to tell me)
What you’re feeling sounds like the last two posts in Trauma.
I don't know. I'm in Jordan since April. I still feel the fear the caution the intense horrid feeling as if im still in gaza etc. I remember the scenes and i remember seeing our home hit.
Im sorry im burdening you with me
Is it safer in Jordan? (I’m not sure where that is… I’m not even sure where Gaza is)
Is Void your sibling?
You’re not burdening me… I’m honored that you trust me enough to tell me this <3
Jordan is an independant country in middle east, so yeah it is safe. Gaza is a city in Palestine (occupied country) that holds 2 million palestinians.
No, void is something i created to feel less alone. It helps me vent i think.
Thank you kiara, that really means alot 🤍🤍🫂🫂
Is Gaza like Israel? (Pardon my ignorance, I know very little geography and stuff)
Oh, the way you wrote it, I thought it was a sibling who had passed.
You should write more…
Vent to me… I’m here <3
No no thats ok. No, so israel occupied palestine in 1967, but then Israel withdrew its troops and settlers in 2005 from Gaza, so it became for palestinians.
Israel still controls Gaza’s borders, airspace, and sea access, blockades, entry/exit...etc, so in a sense its still occupied, and isolated. Its known as "an open air prison".
So whenever there is an issue, they attack Gaza, since its only palestinians there.
Yeah, void is kinda representing my siblings in a way
🤍🫂🫂 <3
Wow… I didn’t know Israel controlled anything.
Are your siblings gone?
What’s my next move? I did some hygiene self care and I was thinking about creating a playlist, since mine disappeared once I deleted a music app. What else? <3
Ooh I love that, and re-creating your playlist feels like reclaiming a little joy ✨
Hmm, honestly, anything that keeps you feeling present and gentle with yourself sounds like the right move 🫂
maybe a walk, a little journaling, or watching something. I do love walks with music too <3
What could I do at home, especially?
Hmmm, You can go cozy and relaxing, get blankets, pillows, candles, and your fav food, or snacks, or tea or whatever you like.
And then you can just lay down listen to music, or journal, or watch a show/movie, or play a relaxing game, or just slow down from everything, listen to the sounds, birds, wind, whatever soft noise surrounding you, or play wind chimes sound, and listen and relax 🕯🍵🎐🍃☺️
That all sounds beautiful <3
Its very relaxing. It helps in reseting and refreshing, and to just slow down a bit from crazy life.
Hey :)
Hey kiara 🫂🫂🤍
How’s my buddy? <3
🫂🫂🫂
How've you been? 🤍
That wasn’t an answer ;)
Tired. Confused. Exhausted. Worn out.
Hugs kiara 🫂🫂🫂
Anything specific causing that? I hope you are taking care of yourself, you deserve breaks and rest kiara i hope you know that 🤍🤍🥺
I don’t take breaks. I don’t rest.
You know .. sometimes life gives you red lights to force a pit stop; so you can refuel the soul before you race again. Let this stop be your break, and rest.
You deserve breaks and rest kiara, you know those "pit stops" are part of being productive. You are recharging your soul, and thats an important task too 🫂🤍
I got heat exhaustion today, so that forced me to sit down and not move lol
Aww sorry to hear Kiara, make sure to hydrate and have enough rest. and to not overwork yourself
The overeating is the worst…
Hugs kiara 🫂🫂🤍 im sorry you are having a rough time. Hugggs 🫂🫂🫂
Thank you <3
How’s my Aura buddy doing? <3
Adulting is hard.
How so?
like this world wasn’t built with us in mind.
Explain.
How to explain navigating through life after losing your entire family in a second.
That’s not adulting… That’s post-trauma survival. I can imagine how anguishingly difficult it is…
How have you been?
Exhausted. Utterly exhausted. Confused. Lost.
Im so sorry to hear that kiara 🫂🫂🫂 please take care of yourself, you deserve the world, you have a very kind rare heart.
I have an very grumpy and sad and moody heart. Lol
Nope. I like your kind sweet heart. Just as many others in here do 🤍
You wouldn’t like the real me.
If I can see how radiant and beautiful your soul is just through words, I’m certain I’d feel it even more in person. It’s not easy to truly show who we are in this digital world, our kindness, or personality...but somehow, with some people, it shines through.
You’re one of those rare ones.
And if I feel this way just through text, I know I’d like you even more in real life. 🫂🫂🌷
Awww <3
So, tell me about you <3
Im completely and utterly lost
Awww, do tell. How come? <3
Hey <3
Hey, Kiara 🩷🫂🫂🫂
How've you been?
I’m sorry I took so long to respond!
Disgusted with myself about my eating disorder.
How’s my Aura? <3
Thats totally ok, no need to be sorry for anything. Im sorry thats how you are feeling, its a tough feeling, hugs <3
Im ok thanks 🫂
I want the real answer. <3
I dont know the real answer lol.
🫂🫂🫂
What’s been going through your head lately?
Alot and nothing at the same time.
Its hard to explain. But i feel floaty. Or as if im flying but not exactly flying i dont know how to explain it exactly.
But i take walks it kinda helps in not thinking
Maybe your brain is just coasting to give you a bit of a break? <3
Maybe. 🌷
