@amiablePeace77 I've turned from a caterpillar into a butterfly😁💖 the more I learn about myself and the world I've grown so much. I still have bad days where I think bad things about myself, like we all do. But I'm trying very hard every day and everyday I grow stronger💖
hugs Ami 💖 I love you 💗
@Tinywhisper11

@amiablePeace77
Did your perceptions about yourself change over time and how?
Yes. I've come to realise that my self worth was and will never be determined by how others perceive me but my own self. I've learnt that I can thrive the most when I hit the absolute rock bottom. I sometimes need a shock in order to bring my senses back to reality.
@amiablePeace77
Did your perceptions about yourself change over time and how?
Some self perceptions have changed. They changed from experiencing life, grieving, learning. acceptance (with caveats).
@amiablePeace77
So much so that I don't recognise myself any more. I fear I've lost my mind. I'm happy, but I mourn who I used to be, just simple me.
Now I overthink, overanalyse, turn each moment into a search for meaning. I'm not sure that's healthy... but I'm happy.
@cyanessence you only truly lose your mind when you stop seeking 💜🥰
@amiablePeace77
Firstly, thankyou for the prompt Ami💖Yes, I realize all situations ultimately demand us to be self-compassionate! It becomes much easier to deal with them when we hold responsibility for our behavior and learn to forgive ourselves and the people around! All and nothing thinking does not exist in life, we can always make out something good out of everything! And the more evidence we have of growing upon whatever we face, we start loving ourselves more! I hope I could explain myself!
Yes, my perceptions about myself have changed over time. I have learned a lot of lessons from my past experiences. When I was younger, I would say I was not very aware of myself. But now I get to learn from people, which is a great opportunity that can be obtained from 7 Cups.
@amiablePeace77
yes they change and very frequently.
How do they change in every way possible.
Why do they change? The mind just decides to think something else. Many things effect it perception.
