Write a Letter of Good Wishes

Writing a letter or note sending best wishes is unfortunately one of those tasks people often put little effort into. Perhaps most of the thank-you notes and well-wishes cards that you receive are just bought and signed. Some may also be printed from a computer, or you may just receive one via email, which often feels very impersonal.

What do you do with these cards and notes? You pile them up without reading them and store them away. If you're a busy person, you just might not even take the time to bother with the email containing well-wishes. Guilty? Perhaps everyone is. You are probably used to sending good wishes to your close friends, family and close colleagues, however, sending good wishes is a custom that even business entrepreneurs recognize as a good business practice. It brings about goodwill and opens business opportunities. There are entrepreneurs who are on the lookout for partners and are grateful for favors and business deals. This practice that shows kindness and gratitude, is something that should be common with family, friends, social situations and in business. It is one of the best ways to say thank-you and wish people well for all the support and care you've received.

There are many things a person should be thankful for. Thanking people who have, in one way or another, helped you, is a gesture that many people forget to do, but people never forget when they receive that kind of gratitude. There are many reasons for sending good wishes:

1. 1
   Major success in life or business

   .

   

   This could be anything from closing a big deal to getting promoted at work. The recipient will definitely be in high spirits and will most likely appreciate anyone who congratulates him or her on this achievement. Perhaps the person who did not take time to write a special note of good wishes will be remembered as well. Perhaps you will be sending champagne or a bouquet of flowers. Make it more meaningful by attaching a note about how well he or she did during the difficult times prior to achieving this goal.

   Graduation

   .

   

   Like any other achievements in life, graduating College or finally getting a master's degree is an accomplishment worth celebrating. Finally achieving this goal is one of the most important highlights in an individual's life. As such, attaching your gift with good wishes is a thoughtful thing to do. It's a way of showing support to the person. Add a personal touch by mentioning a particular time in the person's life when he or she was trying to overcome a stumbling block towards achieving his or her goal. It will make your gift and good wishes more meaningful. If the letter is about graduation, you can mention specific plans about education. You may be aware of your friend's plans to continue his or her education. Perhaps your friend is planning to take a break from his or her schooling adventures to get a full time job instead. In order to be personal and specific when writing this type of letter, it is important to mention what you know about the individual, and not to make assumptions. If you've mistakenly mentioned in your best wishes letter that you are pleased with his or her decision to continue his or her education. but he or she is in fact is going to get a job instead, the letter will not be appreciated. It will reveal the fact that you have not been an attentive friend.

   Marriage

   .

   

   Tying the knot is one of the most memorable events in one's lifetime. Finding your life partner and marrying him or her is one of the many things people desire in life. Sending your good wishes to the happy couple will be much appreciated. Include a good story or parable of a husband and wife so the couple can take time to savor opening your gift. This will also make them remember you and your gift because of the personalized message you attached your gift to.

   Pregnancy

   .

   

   The confirmation that a baby will come soon is good news to expectant parents. This is especially true when they've been waiting for a long time for the baby to come. Your note of wishing them well will be much appreciated if you give it in time for a baby shower. Usually, someone will hold a baby shower for the expectant mother a couple of weeks or a month before the expected delivery. This is also the best time for you to give your gift, along with a note of good wishes.

   Birth of a child

   .

   

   The joy of pregnancy is nothing compared to the arrival of a couple's bundle of joy. This moment is always shared with family and friends. You can seize this opportunity to wish a couple well with the arrival of their child. If you were able to share the couple's difficulties during the pregnancy period, this is the best time to savor that moment through your letter, or it might be the best time to not include it in your note as it might mar your good intentions.

   Illness

   .

   

   When a friend or a colleague becomes ill, people often tend to send flowers or balloons and get well soon cards. Did you ever notice how ill people's hearts are warmed when reading hand-written short missives? This is partly because aside from TV, there is not much to do at the hospital. A person who is hospitalized is not required to do anything and should not be stressing him or herself. They also feel disconnected with the rest of the world, which is why receiving well-thought and well-written get well soon cards are best to be given with your flowers or fruits. Rest assured that this time, the individual has all the time in the world to read your letter, as it will be about all he can, do aside from sleeping, watching TV, taking his medications and waiting for his doctor.

   Yearly Events

   .

   

   This includes Father's Day, Mother's Day, Valentines' Day, birthdays, or any other occasion that marks a special day for someone. Sending a combination of thank you and well wishes is something that children rarely do today. When you think that it's high time someone learns how you appreciate them, using letters of good wishes and thanks are the excellent ways of expressing them. Some people get too emotional when talking about their feelings, while some others find it too mushy and they laugh at the person expressing them. One safe method is to express it through a hand-written letter.

At this time of year, many of us like to recall the events that are most memorable to us. This took me back to our picnic at the Basildon Estate when you were here last November.

Have an enjoyable holiday season! You have earned it! We'll plan another get-together next year.

Sincerely yours,

How to give reply for appreciate mail to my boss?

Recently I was appreciated by my boss by letter, so I want to reply to him

A corporate letter such as a letter of appreciation to your boss should have that formal or business-like format with a friendly tone. This should not be elaborate, but focus more on the appreciation or gratitude for perhaps a promotion, citation, bonus, referral, or maybe even a simple gesture of kindness. You can refer to this sample mail of appreciation when you draft your mail for your boss:

Dear (Recipient):

Good day!

I am very grateful and lucky to have a boss with your candor and spirit. You lead by example and know how to motivate and empower people by drawing out the best in us. Thank you so much for the note of appreciation that you sent me. I believe that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and by far, you have made us the strongest team by honing our skills and allowing us to be assertive in order to gear the company to success.

Thank you so much for taking the lead.

Cheers,

(Your Name)

I want to love one girl in my institute, so what can I do?

I want to love her, but she cannot understand my problem, how to understand my problem. I have tried: I can't explain my love for her. I think it was caused by: If I say I love you to her, she might be angry.

You cannot make someone love you. What you can do is show her how you feel by encouraging her daily and being there for her when she is distressed. Offer to help her in a class project or help her study for a class you already took. You need to establish a connection with her and your common interest is your school, so use that.

I want to check on one of my lecturers?

Just want the kind of words, I could use. I have tried: Still thinking of how I could compose it
