| Thank-You Cards ~ Friendship Cards |
| Thank-You Notes and Cards: Why, When, How |
| The ritual of giving and receiving gifts is important in every culture. In some societies, there is a strict protocol for gift-giving. In the U.S., people tend to choose and give presents as expressions of their individual styles. Click HERE to learn about the "language of flowers." Symbolically, whether the gift is a baby stroller or a company's promo- tional T-shirt, it begins a cycle of giving and receiving. The cycle is completed when the recipient acknowledges and expresses gratitude for the gift, whether by presenting his or her own gift or by writing a thank-you card or letter. Or the cycle may continue, like a traveling wheel, into lifelong friendship. |
| The gifts—their size, cost, frequency, and intimacy—convey important messages. Sending a thank-you note promptly, for example, indicates that the recipient values the gift (or kind gesture, hospitality, and so forth) and wants to show respect for the giver. You should express your appreciation in writing, as soon as possible, for...
There might be other times when you feel that a thank-you note is in order. Follow your instincts. On your note, be sure to acknowledge the gift, thank the giver, and mention why you value the gift (even if you don't really like it; for example, "Every time I look at it, I will think of you and your kindness"). In the U.S., the giving of gifts is evolving into a response to demands:

The ages-old tradition of giving and receiving, and its significance, are, unfortunately, lost when the recipient feels entitled to a gift in general, and specific gifts in particular. |

By Sonia Devine Are you constantly struggling with life? If so, you might be focusing on all the wrong things. Practising daily gratitude will help you to turn your life around. Want what you have and what you want will come to you! Gratitude is one of the most important things you can practise if you want to manifest unlimited wealth. One of the best ways to keep abundance and wealth flowing into your life is to give thanks for what you have today. By focusing on what you already have, you allow yourself to receive even more, so it is really vital to practise true gratitude. We live in a world that focuses on instant gratification. If we don't have the money for something that we want to buy right now, then all we have to do is go to the bank and they are more than happy to loan us the money. As a result, many people are inundated in debt, and they become trapped in a never ending cycle of wanting, buying, and then spiralling deeper in debt. When we get stuck in this cycle, we are constantly wanting things that we don't have, and in the process, we forget to appreciate what we DO have; Every day, we remind ourselves of what we are missing in our lives, and we can't begin to grasp the concept of gratitude. Instead, we say: "When I have everything I want...THEN I'll be grateful!" But that is not the way the Universe works.... Are you always comparing what you have with what others have, or wishing you could have what is advertised on TV? Or perhaps the people who live next door have a better car, a nicer house and more "things to play with" than you. Of course, it doesn't help when pictures of the "perfect family" with the "perfect life" are right on that TV screen in front of you every day. Do you feel deprived, frustrated or angry because you don't have what seems to be on offer to everybody else? Whatever your situation is, focusing on what is lacking in your life is the single most effective way to ensure that you remain in a state of scarcity. You might ask this question: But How Can I Show Gratitude When I Don't Have What I Want Yet?. And that IS a good question; so here's a good answer: Make A Habit Of It. Now, if you have become accustomed to only seeing scarcity all around you, then my guess is that gratitude will be the last thing on your mind. So the suggestion I am going to make may be difficult for you at first; I would even go as far as to say that you may feel a bit resentful about having to do it. |
easier for us to blame other people and outside circumstances for our lack of wealth; because if it's all other people's fault, then we don't have to do anything ourselves in order for "things to change".. right?? Well Okay, that's fine if you're happy for things to remain exactly as they are now. But if not, why not give this a go? You have everything to gain and nothing to lose! So make a commitment to change the way you see your life. Take stock of everything you have. You might be surprised and even amazed at all of the little things that you forgot are so special to you. Begin by writing of all the positive things you have in your life. Who loves you? Who are your friends? What about your children. How do they light up your life? These are just a few things that we forget about that add so much value and joy to our lives. Practising gratitude each day will remind you of the good things in your life. Now, I don't want to sound like a Pollyanna, but this is worth a try! If nothing else, it will help you feel better about your current life circumstances. Add something new to your gratitude list each day, and you'll be amazed at how many great things you will be able to think of once you develop this skill! When you are grateful for everything you already have, you open yourself up to attract more great things. The Law Of Attraction always makes sure that this will happen. Thank the Universal Source for everything you currently have, and you will invite and allow even more prosperity to come to you. Make gratitude a part of your daily routine....and witness miracles in your life!
