My friends Amy and Anna are getting married today.
I wanted to get them a toaster, but instead of presents they asked for appreciations.
Here is the appreciation gift I made for them.
The little tags are tied onto the flowers with hot pink raffia, and each card
contains an appreciation like "I love Amy's giggle"
Speaking the truth on a deeper level
Our speech is one of the most important ways we can take into the world the lovingkindness, or metta, that we develop in meditation .
I’ve said already that mindful speech should not only be honest, but should be meant kindly. One of the most effective means of being kind in our speech and of helping others is to express appreciation of them.
This is an excellent practice.
