If you feel inclined, pop in the comments some GIF showing things that fill your cup. Experiences, people, journaling, whatever it is I hope you will try the fun experiment of doing something that fills your cup every single day. It doesn't have to be a big half hour or 3-hour huge thing. That little moment of stopping to gaze and wonder at a flower, those few minutes where you just sit on the floor with your dog and be present without a phone or an agenda. I'll share what's filling my cup today in the first comment. I wonder who's comments I will pin? It certainly won't be mine.

Happy Birthday,, @Angela Caccioppo ! 🌹 Please, everyone come in and share some birthday love and good wishes with Angela! Today is not only your birthday—it’s also National Smile Day. That feels wonderfully appropriate because you spend so much of your life helping others find self-love, beauty, and hope. Through every challenge you’ve faced, you’ve continued to share kindness, creativity, and encouragement with the people around you. So today we’re celebrating you—your heart, your strength, your love of roses and rose quartz, and the countless smiles you’ve inspired. May your year be filled with healing, beauty, and reasons to smile right back at the world. 🌹💗 A close runner-up is What You Think Upon Grows Day, another May 31 observance that encourages focusing on positive, nurturing thoughts—very aligned with self-love and personal growth. I actually think combining the two creates a beautiful birthday theme: “On National Smile Day and What You Think Upon Grows Day, let’s celebrate Angela—the woman who teaches us that love grows where we choose to nurture it.” 🌹✨

PROMPT Please draw the character in the image, (NAME) , in a free and stripped sketch style. On a bright white background, freely distribute full-body drawings, face close-ups, small scribbles, full-body sketches and chibi/deformed versions, so that the page conveys the character's humor and personality. Don't do it like an organized character sheet, but like a sketchbook full of information drawn at will by an illustrator and then stacked. Mine is fun. I hope you have a good time with this.
