As
I draft invite templates for an upcoming event, I am reflecting on what it means to give. I am planning a fundraiser in honor of a
couple who has given back to their community for over 20 years. As I grow and
transition from being a recipient of so many opportunities to a position of giving
back to my community, I often reflect on the best ways “to lift as I climb.”
As
I think about fonts and wording, I am drawing a blank on theme and imagery.
What does honoring others and showing appreciation look like? Is it a soft color with script font or is it Bright and bold? I
decided to draw inspiration from the words of others. Here are some of my
findings on appreciation and gratitude. I’ll keep you updated on my style
decisions.
“As we express our
gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter
words, but to live by them.” – John F. Kennedy
“You cannot do a kindness
too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late.” – Ralph Waldo
Emerson
“Feeling grateful or
appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the
things that you appreciate and value into your life.” – Northrup Christiane
“What
you truly acknowledge truly is yours. Invite your heart to be grateful and your
thank yous will be heard even when you don’t use words.” – Pavithra Mehta
