What to write when you are at loss for words

All of us have those days where we are loss for words and have no idea how we can relay our feelings to others.  Here are a few tips on how you could write something when you think you can’t:

1)      Settle down and relax your mind you are probably thinking too hard and forcing yourself to write.  People who can write a lot are normally just thinking bout a certain topic or feeling, you on the other hand has so much stuff in your head you got confused on which to write about.

2)      Remember your recipient and think about his / her qualities – does he/she like to laugh? Is he/she your boss that requires a more serious tone? Is he/she a relative that yearns for more sweetness? 

3)      Remember why you are writing. 

-          Is it for a special occasion or just a note to say hello?

-          Special occasions like weddings may require a bit more formality than a normal birthday card

4)      Create a mini outline on what you want to say.

            Ex.

I.                   Intro/ Hello/Greetings

II.                How you feel that moment

III.             Why you are writing

IV.             Special memories you share with the person (skip if its for a colleague or a boss)

V.                Thank you

VI.             Final greetings or other sweet nothings

       Outlines will keep your thoughts in one general line so your ideas are not scattered.  Simplicity is still the best bet for any greeting card.  You don’t have to fill up all the spaces to express your feelings, you just tell them succinctly how you feel in simple words and that’s about it. 

It’s always simple with MisterGreetingCard.

How to Say Sorry

Sorry.

Apologies are the hardest thing to do.  People envelope themselves with so much pride, swallowing it and saying a simple word like ‘sorry’ can be a chore.

If you can’t say it in front of the person, perhaps a “Sorry greeting card” is a great alternative.  In it, you can include your feelings, your thoughts and of course your apology.  You can start with your intentions and express all your forlorn feelings.

Here are a few pointers on how to go about with your apology:

1)      Remind them of how far your friendship or love stood with the test of time

2)      Tell them how you are feeling lately (sad and lonely, bewildered, stagnant etc…)

3)      Tell them why you decided to write

4)      Let them know what you hope to achieve with this note

5)      Tell them how DEEPLY AND SINCERELY SORRY YOU ARE.

6)      Let them know what you have learned and promise to change

7)      Thank them for all the love and understanding amidst the upset

Never say sorry if you really don’t mean it. It’s pointless, useless and a waste of both of your time.  It’s not all that difficult, swallow your pride, move your mouse and let MisterGreetingCard help you. Send that Sorry to that someone who you may have just hurt.  It always the best time to say you’re sorry.

What to write in a New Year Card

Okay so you sent a Christmas card already and the New Year is on its way but you have no idea on what to say let Mistergreeting card help you on how to make your greeting card livelier apart from the generic “Happy New Year.”

If you know the people you are sending the card to personally try to list down their New Year resolution, depending on the person include humor or positive reinforcement to show them you support them.  Adding simple quotes or good verses to uplift a spirit is a good way to create a greeting card that will boost someone’s start of the year. 

Send them good tidings or well wishes.  Like “Hoping for the best in your new career change this new year” or “Wishing you nothing but the best in your new endeavor.”     

You can also write down you New Year resolution specially those that may involve the person you are sending it too.   A good example would be:

1)      For this year I am cutting down alcohol intake by 50% so please help me to decline parties with drinks.

2)      I am trying to regain my slender figure from our 20s, I need your support so lets hit the gym! 

3)      As Fireworks start to welcome the year, I also start my campaign to quit smoking so don’t influence me.

It doesn’t have to be long.  It just has to be catchy or enough that your reader will be smile and feel that you took a little bit of time to write your feelings.

Whether it’s funny, sarcastic or bubbly your goal in personalizing the card is to make the person reading it happy even just for a few seconds.  Cards are always sent from the heart no matter how you want to achieve it.  So pop that champagne bottle and let’s celebrate to the best the world has to offer this coming year! Cheers!
