I just got a lovely surprise in the mail and wanted to share it with you guys. I checked my mail box the other day and was pleasantly surprised to find something I had been expecting but I’m not going to lie it had slipped my mind a little. Honestly, I don’t get things in the mail much. But now that I’m a writer *barely* I have been getting more mail. And today, I received a lovely gift from a lovely friend.
I’m sure you guys remember the review I did of Re-Create And Celebrate by Cindy Georgakas. I talked about how much I loved the book even though I am not someone who reads self-help books much. And I am sure you are familiar with Cindy and her blog Unique Times. She’s a big part of the WordPress community. I met her a few years ago on here thanks to blogging and I have loved her blog and writing since then. I have also come to learn that she is an amazing person, she’s so selfless, kind and generous. Seriously, one of the best people I know!
Well, she was kind enough to send me a signed/personalised copy of her book in the mail even though I’m like a million kilometres (read miles for my American audience!) away. This is the first time someone has sent me their book via the mail and the personalised notes made even better. And she added some goodies too! I’m honestly so thankful to Cindy!

If you haven’t read Re-Create And Celebrate yet, I don’t know what you’re waiting for! Personally, I’ll be re-reading it now that I have a hard copy of it! Click here to purchase it on Amazon.

Thanks so much, really appreciate that! 😊
Awesome gift Pooja. So very considerate and generous of Cindy to send it to you.
Thanks so much and I agree, it was so nice of her.
You’re most welcome
This was very nice of her, Pooja, enjoy!
It was and thank you!
☺️☺️☺️
Congratulations 🎉🎉
Thank you 😊
I saw the video yesterday
And I’m very happy about it 😊
CG is amazing.
She did sent me this book 2 months ago, but I never received it 😢
Lost it 😢
Thanks so much. Yes, she’s amazing and so sorry you didn’t get it. Maybe it got lost or sent to the wrong person 😩
Usually parcels don’t get lost like this
But there are some companies, who give it to others, so it’s impossible to track them.
Oh I see, that’s very annoying. I really hope you get it eventually.
I don’t think so.
It’s been 2+ months
It’s lost
The company won’t care
Sadly, no tracking id was given.
When I sent stuff, I give tracking Id, so that shows progress and proof of delivery.
Oh I see, wow that sucks.
Very nice. Hard copy books are the best especially when they are personalized.
I agree, I very much prefer hard copies but can’t get them here since we don’t have amazon. So this was the perfect thing!
That makes her gift even better, since she took your situation into account!
Exactly, it was such a thoughtful gift!
What a sweet and thoughtful package!!
She’s very sweet and thoughtful!
Well deserved… so sweet!!
Thanks!
aaaw… such a sweet gesture and so like you say… “she’s so selfless, kind and generous.”

In a digital age where communication is often reduced to short texts or even mere emojis, such a personalized touch stands as a poignant reminder that sincerity and kindness still find their way into our lives.
I absolutely agree, I think that’s what makes it even more special.
What a wonderful surprise from sweet Cindy. 😊

Awesome! Cindy’s generosity inspires many others.
Agreed, she’s wonderful!
I love unexpected presents! It’s probably a common thing. I don’t like expected gifts because they feel a bit forced / planned. Gift giving is a form of art that not many have mastered so far. I’m one of those people, last time I gave my hand made gifts Chinese people were confused, although it’s not uncommon to give/receive farewell presents
Same here, I very much prefer unexpected gifts much more. But I rarely get them and never got them often as a kid. Which is what makes it better when I do get an unexpected gift.
Oh I see, that’s so interesting. I guess it’s different in every culture.
Live and learn I guess
Beautiful post
Thank you so much.
