While shopping at Enjoy in Andersonville (the spot for all things cute, kitschy and Chicago-style), I found this set of cards called "Not Sure Who Needs To Hear This, But...".
The cards are actually postcards that you can send to someone who is having a rough time, just made a big move, or as validation of their self-work and positivity. As I was thinking of who might need to read these cards, I realized - me! We all need a little encouragement once and a while :)
More about the cards:
