Wishes in pictures Automatic translate
On postcards we write almost the same thing, but we choose different images for the recipients. This is how the true attitude towards them and the real desire are manifested…
You bought 7 different postcards. Sign who you will send which to. Try to congratulate all your loved ones and friends. You can choose the same postcard for several people. And if that’s not enough for you, try making a musical greeting card using an online designer!
1. “I wish you to change”
Often we are forced to put up with the shortcomings of loved ones. It may be impossible to even hint about some negative quality, that the cause of all a person’s problems is in himself. “Oh, friend, stop complaining that everyone is leaving you. You don’t let people say a word!” And what will your friend say to you about this? “Thank you, I will be more restrained and more attentive to others.” Nothing of the kind - he will probably be offended. A picture of people gives such a subtle hint of the desired changes that it only reaches our unconscious. And we (also unconsciously) choose such cards for someone we want to see a little different.
2. “Joy to you and success, but at a distance from me”
The attitude towards the addressee is indifferent and distant. Perhaps he is simply too far away (in spirit or geographically). Maybe there was a conflict in the past that was resolved, but left a chill in the relationship. It’s normal if you want to sign a similar postcard for your boss, colleague, or husband’s friends whom you recently met. But if you chose something similar for your mother, you should think about it. What kind of resentment is freezing your relationship? Think about this just before the holiday and try to break the ice.
3. “I wish the same relationship between us”
Toys and children’s fairy-tale motifs in postcards for adults are a longing for the past. Such messages are sent to each other by best friends who got married and moved away. Or mothers and adult children who have always had a warm relationship. Just acquaintances who, due to circumstances, were unable to continue close communication. Former good neighbors. And also those who, due to their character, love the past more than the future. The postcard leaves a pleasant but sad feeling. Toys do not have an active future - in the house of adults they will sit idle. But our future depends only on us! Instead of sending congratulations, offer to meet. Thanks to real communication (possibly via Skype), we are more willing to accept the present.
4. “I am sincerely glad that you are so simple and understandable”
Still life postcards are often accompanied by wishes like “so that there is always something to drink to”, “so that there is more often a reason for a feast.” The one who gives is sure that the recipient will not look for hidden meaning in these words and will not be offended, because he is truly a kind, open and simple person in the best sense of the word. You can share problems and joys with him, it’s nice to see him at your table. And often these qualities are so significant to us that we do not notice others. In vain! Find reasons for deeper conversations. And on the card, write not a formal congratulation, but something very personal, known only to you.
5. “…and be pleased with what I do for you”
Similar cards are often given to bosses and elderly relatives. With them, we often have mismatched expectations. “I paid for the repairs, I send money once a month, but my parents still complain, saying that I rarely call,” “Yes, I bring the most profit to the company. What kind of constant complaints?” It is difficult for us to imagine that other people need from us something completely different from what we think. Maybe the parents didn’t care so much about the repairs. But the fact that for 10 years you have with them Similar cards are often given to superiors and elderly relatives. With them, we often have mismatched expectations. “I paid for the repairs, I send money once a month, but my parents still complain, saying that I rarely call,” “Yes, I bring the most profit to the company. What kind of constant complaints?” It is difficult for us to imagine that other people need from us something completely different from what we think. Maybe the parents didn’t care so much about the repairs. And here is what you have with them in 10 years
6. “I wish there was someone in your life who will take care of you like I do.”
Such cards are given to loved ones whom we feel sorry for, because not everything is going smoothly in their personal life or at work, they have health problems, big and not so good changes. But often our options are limited. In fact, we cannot move in with a friend after her divorce, no matter how sad she may be. All that remains is to listen, reassure her, wipe her tears and give her cards like this… This is unnecessary! Excessive sympathy prevents a person from becoming stronger and coping with circumstances on his own. Do not try to open the doors of your home to someone who is now wandering in the cold forest. Otherwise, he will never find his.
7. “I want our relationship to concern more than just me.”
As a rule, one person is more interested, another less. One initiates spending time together more often, the other less often. This is normal (especially since at times there are rapprochements and role reversals). But sometimes the imbalance is too obvious and sensitive. Then you really want a wizard to intervene in the situation and fix everything. But in strengthening relationships, Santa Claus is not our friend. He himself is alone. You need to present something very personal (to show the significance of the relationship) and unusual (to intrigue). Make your own card. Write on it not a congratulation, but… haiku.
