Friendship

Friendship Note No. 1 – Expression of Appreciation

Dear [NAME]:

Someone once wrote that our lives are defined by the experiences we have with the countless people we meet during our life’s journey. Whether these people are with us for years or for just an hour, they all tend to leave their mark on us in some way, good or bad. I consider you, my friend, to be one of those rare people who have left a good mark on me. Life is short, and good people like you are a treasure to be sure. As an expression of my appreciation, I give you this small token of my friendship. May you enjoy health, happiness and long life.

[NAME]

Friendship Note No. 2 – Loyalty

[NAME]:

What can I say? We have gone through a lot together. Not only have we seen the good times, but we’ve tasted the bitter side of life as well. You have been there with me, good or bad, and that tells me a lot about your character. Only true friends can boast such loyalty and your friendship means the world to me. As a small token of my appreciation, please accept this gift. Enjoy it in good health, [buddy/NAME].

Your friend always,

[NAME]

Friendship Note No. 3 – Solid Friendship

[NAME]:

When we first met, you didn’t strike me as a friendly person. I guess one shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. But since that first meeting so many years ago, you have proven to be one of the most caring, kind and thoughtful people I’ve known and will ever know. You surprise me all the time and your friendship is solid and unswerving. As a token of my appreciation, please accept this gift. Use it well and in good health.

Get Well

Graduation Note No. 1 – Middle School

Dear [NAME]:

We are so proud of you. Middle School is a transitional period in everyone’s life. It is where we begin to understand who we are and what we want to do in life. It is a time of growing in both mind and body and sometimes, it can be tough. [I am/We are] pleased that you are graduating and stand on the threshold of a new challenge. High School will further test you and your character. Prepare yourself well and do not compromise your values in order to “fit in” with the crowd. Find good friends, stay away from troublemakers. Never give in to drugs for they will drag you down and destroy your future. [I/We] pray that you will take this to heart and follow your conscience to a bright tomorrow.

[NAME(S)]

Graduation Note No. 2 – High School

Dear [NAME]:

[I/We] can’t believe it. It was just like yesterday that you were a freshman in High School and zap, you are now a Graduate on the threshold of [college/life]. Where did the time go? [I am/We are] sure that for you, the years seemed longer and as they passed, one by one, you became more [learned/educated] and more confident in yourself. But remember this, learning is a life-long process. None of us know everything and every day, we learn something new. Whether you go to college or join the work force, keep your mind open and receptive to new ideas and learn from your failures as well as your triumphs. [I/We] wish you the best in all your future endeavors.

[NAME(S)]

Graduation Note No. 3 – College

Dear [NAME]:

In our lives, there are only a few important events that stand out. Graduation from college is one of them. It is a goal that only a few people in the world experience. It is a singular feeling to know that one has put in the time, learned something important, and is now being acknowledged for one’s efforts with a diploma.

[I/We] congratulate you on this achievement and wish you much success in all of your future endeavors.

[NAME(S)]

Love Expressions

Love Expression Note No. 1 – How Many Ways?

Dear [NAME]:

A poet once wrote, “How do I love thee – Let me count the ways…” If I, my love, were to count the ways, there would be no end to the number I would come up with, for you mean everything to me. You are the light that warms me and the harbor that protects me from the storm. You hold the key to my present and my future and I love you deeply.

I hope you will take this small token of my devotion and enjoy it for many years to come.

Love forever,

[NAME]

Love Expression Note No. 2 – The Depth of My Love

Dear [NAME]:

I cannot express to you the depth of the love I feel for you, for there are no words that could do it justice. Suffice it to say that all these years have made me [appreciate/realize] the importance of your presence in my life. Your consideration, kindness, caring ways, and support have been immeasurable and have given me strength, comfort and happiness. Please accept this gift as a meager attempt at expressing my [appreciation/thanks].

Love

[NAME]

Love Expression Note No. 3 - True Love

Dear [NAME]:

True love is a cherished thing. In this world, not everyone has the opportunity of experiencing it. Those who do not, I’m positive, go through life with an empty heart. That is why I consider myself very [lucky/fortunate], because I believe that what exists between you and I is true and eternal. This is a special occasion and as a token of my love, I give you this small gift. I hope you enjoy it in good health for a very long time.

Love eternally,

[NAME]
