Thank You Card To Yourself



Have you ever spent over 1/2 hour trying to find the perfect card for that special someone in your life? I have!

Why do I do it, because I want the card I've chosen to say exactly what my heart is feeling about that person. I want my special someone to know what they mean to me, and how they've added joy, peace, and love into my life. My expectations after they read the card is for them to feel appreciated, valued, needed, wanted, and loved...all at the same time.

Americans send out an average of 6.5 billion greeting cards a year! 6.5 BILLION!!!!!! Just think of all the time and money spent on telling others how special they are. CRAZY, right?

Now, imagine if you received one of those cards from yourself. What kind of card would you pick out? What other kind, inspirational, and loving words would you add to it? Take out a piece of paper, fold it in half and write Thank You on the front. Now open it and start writing a "thank you" to yourself. Write from your heart and let the thoughts flow.

When you're finished, close it up and put it away in a draw...Somewhere you know you'll remember where you put. The next time you're feeling down, take out that card and remind yourself of all the things you are, and that the moment of sadness you're in will soon pass.
