Never underestimate the power of a greeting card meant to send a
message of love and emotion.
While some scoff at the simple act of a card given, others depend upon the card's power
to smooth the way for a deeper relationship with the recipient. A person's favourite
colours, favourite flowers, favourite animals, or a hobby shown on the front of the
card can touch something inside their hearts or jog a long-lost fond memory.
The person then opens the card and may smile,
laugh out loud or cry.
Once they read the words that were chosen with care, it will seal the mood. After that,
it is often only a bit of time before a phone call or letter or even an email of much
awaited thanks will evolve. Once more, love is revived and celebrated.
Greeting cards....so simple and yet a saving grace for many. It should jog the memory
to recall the nervousness with which the first greeting card was given by a shy teen
to a sweet first love. Maybe the memory is of a lonely elderly person trying to find
a soul-mate after years of missing their spouse. Whatever the memory, you can bet
there is a greeting card involved somewhere along the line!
Greeting cards are so nice to receive. Whatever the occasion may be, we like to know we
have been thought of. It just gives us a special feeling. And when we receive a very special
greeting card, one we know the sender has made an extra effort to choose, we feel even more
special.
Why not get started and paint some greeting cards for the special people in your life?
I’m sure the receivers will be extremely pleased, and you will certainly have a
great feeling of satisfaction.
