Do you love to receive greeting cards? I know a lot of people who don’t. Some think that instead of sending a greeting card, why not send a whole letter and just decorate it and make it more personalized? Some say it’s just a waste of paper, money and they will just add up to the clutter at home after reading them.
Imagine you are the greeting card to whom you say these words too. I can feel the sadness of that greeting card, diba?
For me, contrary to what other people say, greeting cards still have their charms and they do say a lot about the giver. To write a few, here are some of the things I think about people who send me beautiful greeting cards, like the ones from Hallmark.
Hallmark Cards – special greeting cards to make your loved ones feel more loved and thought of
I won’t mind receiving chocolates along with the greeting cards!
1. that person cares a lot – it makes me feel more special thinking that the person actually did spend some time in the store to find one that I will like
2. that person thinks more of me – when you send a greeting card, you also make an effort to think about the person, the fun times you had, and that he/she is thinking of more times to be with you.
3. that person wants me to think of them for a long time – when a person gives you a greeting card, he/she assumes that you will keep it for a long time and not throw it to thrash. It means that the person doesn’t want to be forgotten.
4. that person sympathizes with me – when a person gives out a greeting card on any occasion, I feel that he/she wants to tell me that he understands how I feel at the moment. I may be sad or I may be happy, but the greeting card is the best way to feel that I am not alone and someone is thinking of me that moment
5. that person wants to send a piece of himself – what’s so special with greeting cards is that the giver has the opportunity to send a piece of himself through his/her handwriting. They might not have the best handwriting but as I read the cards and the notes they wrote, I could imagine their hands and their faces as they write and tell their feelings.
Who would have thought a simple greeting card can do these much, right? How happier can it be for us to think that we can even send a greeting card every day of the year if we will just wish and do it.
There will be a dozen more holidays and 300 plus days to send a greeting card. When will you be sending yours and to whom?
