Selected uplifting gifts
The Words of Thoreau
Henry David Thoreau's motivational words "live the life you have imagined" reaffirm
the true meaning of existence. You can't go wrong with this reflection of faith and
humanity. Words have the power to heal and reawaken lost spirits. This encouraging
quote can be found on pendants, plaques and a variety of other gift formats. A simple
search of the Web should bring about fruitful results.
Happy Pictures
Pictures are considered an evergreen gift and for good reason. They never go out of
style and are guaranteed to make a person smile. So pull out your old photo albums and
start sending that unhappy someone pictures of brighter days gone by. A great idea is
to mail an envelope every day or two for a week containing one or two picture reprints
with a caption and a short cheery note. Remind this person that life has its ups and
downs and here's proof of the ups. Follow-up with a phone call or a visit and be sure
to bring more pictures with you. Visit your local photo shop for reprints and tips on
personalization.
A Good Book
Reading can be a great stress reliever and has been shown to increase motivation. For
many people, especially those in despair, a good book can be a source of comfort, joy
and inspiration. Try a new release from their favorite author. Or get personal. Are
they a hockey fanatic? Do they love history? Think about their hobbies, likes and
passions. There are books out there on every subject imaginable. Find something that
fits. Let them know that they are important and that they are remembered. You can
easily order your selections online.
Trees of Happiness
If you need to cheer someone up quickly and flowers seem a bit inappropriate, try
sending a unique potted plant or tree such as Bonsai, Lucky Bamboo or Hawaiian
Umbrella. This is a gift that truly celebrates life. And there's no added stress of
constant snipping, watering and feeding. These indoor plants are easy to care for and
can last a lifetime. Call your local florist for cost and availability.
It's difficult when someone you know or love is feeling hopeless or depressed, and
that it's sometimes difficult to know what to do to help them feel better or to give them
a "lift". Each of the gift ideas above is a wonderful way to raise their spirits and
show that you care. Remember to keep it personal and think positive!
