A Bouquet for Pearls - share your appreciation for other members

Every now and then, members share a beautiful Pearl of Wisdom. How often do you think to yourself; "OMG that's great! I wish everyone could see this."

Presenting someone with a bunch of flowers is a generous way of acknowledging their insightful words.

I hope this thread stays active through members giving out praise regularly to people they feel deserving, and therefore keep generosity of spirit alive within the pages of BeyondBlue Forum.

My bunch of Red Roses (my choice) goes to Wishful for the following sentence;

  • 'Personally, I see no reason to be praised in me, but I'm learning that seeing through the eyes of others can be more accurate!!'

I so hear you Wishful. Just beautiful...

  1. Try to keep your leading comments short to focus on 'their' words.
  2. Choose specific flowers (or a gift if you like) to present to them.
  3. Sign off respectfully and sincerely.

I hope this takes off...

Spreading the love...Sara

Hello Deebi....

I so much agree with you, Geoff is a legend here on these forums.......

I have been in hospital now for 2 weeks and heading for my 3rd week....I still have another 2 maybe 3 weeks in here......Deebi...(Demonblaster).. hasn’t left my side, She has been in to visit me daily to keep me feeling safe and cared for..If it wasn’t for Deebi, I would have more likely been in the acute mental health ward, instead of the voluntary units...

I want to give Deebi a beautiful bunch of Jonquils, with a rose of each colour and some jasmine..in the middle is a beautiful scented jonquil candle and bath soap...all in a gorgeous crystal vase....Thank you so very much for not leaving me Deebi...

Dear Grandy,

I would love to have morning tea with you and with everyone here on this amazing forum. Thanks for all of your lovely gifts as well.

Grandy, I want to thank you in return for all you have done to support me and others while you have been travelling your own journey with mental health and other issues.

There are so many wonderful, caring, supportive people here. I offer you all a pat on the back, a firm hand shake, hugs to those of yo who like them, and like Grandy also mentioned flowers to help brighten your day!

Cheers all from Dools

Hello Demonblaster, I have just been alerted by a very good friend of mine that you have complimented me so dearly.

I must say that I'm so deeply sorry that I've been so late to reply, as I'm sure you must have been waiting so eagerly, hoping I would have responded, please forgive me.

It's just so beautiful of you to take the time out to mention me in this thread, truly my heart goes out to you.

Thank you so much and I will always keep your comment with pride.

Hello Grandy, I'm terribly sorry that you've been in the hospital for 3 weeks, maybe more, and I'm sure having daily visits by Deebi with her lovely personality would lift you up a level.

It's not often I'm called a legend except for one trusted friend who also calls me that, but how much I appreciate your lovely comment as well.

All I want is for you to get well, and as you know we are here to help you, but nothing better than seeing Deebi.

Please take care our thoughts are always with you.
