Little things

This week's blog is a little bit different than what i'd usually do. It's something that is quite personal. Each one of my extended family members lives in a different city or is often abroad. I only get the privilege to see them every few months. A couple of weeks ago my uncle, knowing and following my passion for literature, gave me a book called Outliers by Malcom Gladwell. I started reading it about 2-3 days ago. It's such an intriguing book, but that's not my point. I'm neither talking about the writer, nor about the content of the book. I am talking about the gesture. The very fact that he thought of me, and remembered a detail of my personality that stood out to him and actually put in the effort to cultivate a skill of mine, meant the absolute world to me. Don't get me wrong, my uncle isn't cold or anything on the contrary he is very supporting and warm but I was really touched by this act. It is the very small warm gestures that really stay in memory and make each individual unique. By remembering a personality trait or a hobby of someone you love, you have the ability of showing them appreciation and interest in them.
This week i challenge you to make a simple thoughtful gesture to a person you love, be it a note or a gift. Good luck😉
