The word mother and mothers day are simple,
yet powerful little words that you hear all the time
especially so around the time of mothers day when everyone
seem to be scrambling for ideas to say thank you, you are
surely loved and you are appreciated all over again.
But if you would just take time out, you would realize that
useful hints were probably being dropped all alone and
throughout the year. In fact, with that special day being
only a few weeks away, some of your thoughts at this time
can range anywhere from what are you going to do for your
mother, spouse or other loved one to should it be a product
gift or something more personal. If it is the product route,
how can it be made more personalized? If it is the gift of
time, how can it be made more personal?
Mothers Day for some will be welcomed with feelings of
excitement while for others it may be a day of mixed
feelings especially so if the mother you will honor has lost
a child to tragedy. So that is why whenever you wish to
honor someone in your own little way, you should consider
where that person may be in their life and then the event.
Many people say that it's the thought that counts and yes
that's a very good point but so is too know a person and
mother's day is no exception.
To give you some examples, consider a single mother who's
been struggling to raise her children and doing it all alone
in every sense of the word, what would make her day on
mother's day? What about a seventy-two year old mother who
has raised her children but suddenly took on the new
responsibilities of raising her grand children, what would
she possibly want or deserve?
Sure a bouquet of flowers or some other last minute gift
would be nice and probably get you off the hook but what
would that mother really want to do for that special day?
Would she want to spend her day filled with family and
special friends or have a day of being responsibility free?
If you were in that person's shoes, which would you hope
that someone would honor you with for mother's day?
You see mothers day or any other day can be made more
personal when you put some careful thought into your gift
idea. What else would that mother enjoy? What has she wanted
to do for a long time? What has she not gotten to experience
in her lifetime? How can you really show her she is
appreciated?
Even a gift that is accompanied with a carefully written
letter or note with meaning can put a smile on a mother's
face! Yes, I know this will not work for all moms but that's
why in the article it says that YOU need to really know that
person. So please just remember it really is the thought
that counts especially when you did take some time out to
put some thought into your mother's day gift.
Oh, one last thing, I invite you to help every day become a
Mother's Day. By the way moms, it is ok to drop hints about
how you would like to spend your special day and with hope,
your spouse, partner, or other loved one will graciously
honor your small request. After all, mother's day on the
calendar only comes once a year.
