Life is such a blessing. There are so many wonderful occasions and events to celebrate along the way. However, life is also challenging. We never know what tomorrow will bring. Hardships in life are like storms that pass through. They can cause damage, change and destruction in their wake, however the storm won't last forever. And with that hope that the storm won't last forever, there is the hope that the hardship won't last forever.
When someone is going through a difficult time small gestures of love can mean the world to that person. A simple sympathy card, gift, or some flowers can show them that you are thinking about them and care. Taking the time to acknowledge them, validate their feelings , and offer support, where they are at, it will give them the space they need to heal. The blessing in life then becomes that they are not alone in their pain.
I created this sweet sympathy card with this situation in mind focusing on the moment the storm ends. The storm has just passed, the puddles are still on the ground as the clouds part for the first time. The sun begins to shine and the birds come out from hiding. An umbrella shaped mushroom protects a smaller mushroom, keeping it dry and safe from the storm. At that moment a rainbow appears promising hope for the future. The card declares: Thinking of You: Praying for peace and comfort during this difficult time. Letting your friend or loved one know you understand what they are facing isn't easy, that they may be sad and hurting that it is OK, you are there for them and will walk by their side as long as it takes it them.
