Things You'll Need:
- Kindness
-
Step 1
Send a Thank you
If you receive a gift, small or large take a moment to pen a thank you note or card. A simple letter can express such appreciation. Especially in these days of electronics when everything is high pace, taking a moment of time is priceless. -
Step 2
Food and drink
If people help with task such as house repair, yard work, car repair, and anything of that nature. A great way to repay them for there kindness is first make sure they have something cold to drink while there working. And invite them over supper if they are good friends, or at least supply them with some sandwiches. It shows that you appreciate there hard work and effort. -
Step 3
A gift from the heart
Someone in your life is going through a rough time and you want to show you care. First and foremost be there for them, pick up the phone, and visit them. Nothing is better in rough patches than a good friend. If the situation is uneasy, this is where you take a page out of the 1950’s book of etiquette and you make them a casserole, cookies, or order out for them. When people are stressed out and grieved they forget to eat, and can fall into ill health. So taking care of something so simple can really show how you care. -
Step 4
Say it
If you appreciate someone tell them. Tell them what they mean to you and how they impact your life. Time on earth is small and fleeting so never leave people guessing because you never know when it is going to be to late.
