Special birthday gift, a sure way of building a lasting relationship
Presenting special birthday gift is one sure way of winging friendship and retain it forever. There is this friend of mine IKECHUKWU OKOYE ISAAC who never cease to amaze me on my birthdays. He is always the first to call or send me SMS on my birthdays- there is no gift more special than this.
Back then in school, I used to take it as one of those normal school run but, what really got into my head and moved me was Him being the first to call me on my last birthday from The UK. His call woke me up from sleep before my other friends here in Nigeria started calling to wish me happy birthday.
As simple as this may be, its power in winning and sustaining relationship is enormous. One natural law of receiving is to be the first to give. This article is an example of this principle. He didn’t even know am writing this about him. If you want a lasting relationship, be the first to give. Give your time, your love, your appreciation etc.
The power of giving work wonders especially on special and memorable days of the recipients’ life. It could be on their birthday, wedding anniversary/ ceremony, graduation ceremony, naming ceremony etc.
Apart from calling and sending SMS, other simple gifts like greeting cards can perform wonders that you never expected. I have seen couples living together for years without exchanging gifts for once- not even on the eve of their wedding nor their wedding anniversary. What then is the TONIC of relationship if there are no gift. You can even create simple online gift basket for the person.
It is not my intention to write a full fledge article on how to make and sustain a lasting relationship but, to wish my friend a BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY. I just hope he somehow stumble upon this. To my other friends, I still value and appreciate you all.
Happy birthday to you I.K OKOYE!
