One of the best feelings in the world is knowing someone conspired in secret to bring you joy.
If you think about it, that’s kind of the essence of gift-giving, right? It’s less about the gift someone wraps for us and more about the time and energy invested to plan for our enjoyment. (Unless it’s chocolate – then it’s always about the gift.)
And so, we plot and scheme ways to create a positive feeling for someone as she opens that gift. We do these things for the sake of bringing a smile other than our own – without instant gratification, without obligation and without hesitation. It’s one of our favorite human traits.
What if we took this concept behind gift-giving and applied it outside the realm of birthdays, weddings and baby showers? In fact, we could remove the tangible gift altogether. What if we all conspired to uplift one another? What if we secretly devised ways to make a friend feel inspired or double over in uncontrollable laughter? What if we privately plotted traditions to give our children, because we love them and that’s reason enough?
Dearest, this Membership Kit is a gift. One created with your smile as the end-goal. It’s filled with stuff that will constantly remind you to flourish, like a bracelet and postcards and endless words of encouragement. (Check out our unboxing video to see everything that’s in the kit!) We hope you’ll use it to scheme up your own ways of passing joy along to those around you, just because.
