Let’s try something different! How about making it about someone else? Next Sunday is Grandparents Day and worth a look into. Are you are grandparent? Do you know anyone who is a grandparent? Do you have grandparents?
Take the time to look further into this person life. Ask questions, give a hug, and send a note. Acknowledging the individual and what they have accomplished is a selfless and fulfilling act.
The history behind the person can be very rewarding and helpful, you never know how they might be able to help and they just might know where you are coming from.
