“A moment of gratitude makes a difference in your attitude.” -Bruce Wilkinson

Thinking of an overdue gift, I started reflecting on my achieved milestones in past and about the people whom I should be grateful. The people who supported me, recognizes me, helped me, guided me and who stand by me through thick and thin. So, I made a long list of people who made my life even better. Without their support and guidance, I was not able to accomplish so much in my life. I realized the importance of teamwork.

There was a long list, so I decided to shortlist some people who have great impact on my life. I made some beautiful handmade and digitals cards for them as a Payable Gift.

· Appreciating my Mother:

First person came in my mind is my Mama. She taught me to spread love.

“We are born of love; love is our mother.” — Rumi

Thank You Card and Chocolate for my Mother.

Mother-daughter bond is always beautiful. Mothers are self-less human being, who think more about others. My mother is very considerate. She did many sacrifices for me, I should be thankful for. She is like friend who understands me well.

· Acknowledgement to a Friend:

The acknowledgement goes to the person who is my colleague and a friend. She is the one who told me about the Student Focus (Physiotherapy Organization). I applied and got selected as Media and information Secretary. This Organization is now a part of my life. It really changed my life. I got confidence and met new people. I sent her a digital thank you letter. Surely a “Lollipop moment” for her.

· Admiring my teachers:

Our mentors deserve admiration more than anyone else. They guide us in every possible way. I decided to thank some of my teachers for everything they taught me. Professional learning, Life lessons and many more. It is just a thank you note, we cannot payback our teachers for the knowledge they deliver. After seeing these cards, my teachers were so surprised. They said that I made their day.

Letter 1- To a mentor.
Letter 2- To my senior.

Always appreciate and give credits to those who deserve. Maybe it will be a source of happiness to them. :)
