Simple ways to make someone happy.
讓別人快樂的方式
The Forgotten Birthday
被遺忘的生日
We have all forgotten about a birthday of a close friend, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make them happy. Surprise them with a thoughtful gift days or even weeks after the fact. Write a little note saying something like,“I kinda forgot about your birthday and feel like a big goof, but hey, this present more than makes up for it, am I right?”
我們大家都忘記了一個好朋友的生日,但這并意味著你不能讓他們高興起來。幾天或幾星期之后送上一份貼心禮物,給他們一個驚喜。附一張紙條,可以這樣說,“我忘了你的生日,感覺像個呆瓜,但是,嘿,這件禮物足以彌補,對嗎?”
Write a Thank You Note
寫封感謝信
If someone helped you move furniture, land a job or prepare for a big project, write a note expressing your gratitude. Make sure they know that if they ever could use your help, you’d be more than happy to return the favor.
如果某人幫你搬家具,找了一份工作或幫你準備了一個大項目,寫封信表示感謝。一定讓他們知道,如果他們需要你的幫助,你會非常樂意效勞。
