Book Or Movie

Yes, Mother’s day recognized and celebrated, but we cannot deny that we’re still struggling with true equality. If you want to see more women kicking ass out there and more people remembering them for it, we’ve got to gain as much knowledge as we can.

Picture

Sometimes, a simple reminder of the relationship you have with her is enough. A picture of the two of you that embodies that with a quote or a simple yet meaningful message can mean so much to her.

Food

You want a gift filled with love that will leave her full? What better gift is there than a home cooked dish or dessert! Bake her favorite cookies or master that dish she always loved but don’t have the time to prepare. You won’t need any assurance that she liked your gift once you see her empty plate!

Greeting Cards: In The Middle Of A Busy Road

People nowadays are so busy that they walk the street always hustling. Trying to catch a meeting, a flight, or already late for work. They ride the subway with their phone in their hands or a laptop positioned in front of them. In attempt to still be in the loop with what’s happening by the minute because that’s how fast paced the world is. You go offline one minute and you’ve probably missed half of your life.

This is the reason why the industry of greeting cards has declined. Greeting cards? Who has the time to make one or even buy one and send it to somebody, right? But we owe it to ourselves and to the people we love to see beyond these momentary things that’s occupying us and realize what truly matters. Being connected—not online—but to the family, friends or colleague that means the world to us is.

Even in a simple gesture like greeting cards, even in the middle of a busy road of Singapore, makes a difference.

And besides, technology is actually the reason why this should be a whole lot easier and convenient for you despite your hectic schedule. Because there are online platforms now that offers services like greeting card making. You can have it as personalized as you want, you just have to tell them what to put, send them the addresses of your loved ones and they’ll send it to them right at their doorstep. No sweat right?

What’s your excuse now?
