What is an appreciation day you ask.
Well appreciation days are something that my friends and I have every two weeks. It is a social event that we decided to do this year. It is where we buy a gift from $5-$10 and surprise the "appreciation person". The day starts out with everyone gathering in a circle and then we each give the lucky person the gifts and name on thing we appreciate about them. This event has been happening since september 9th and will sadly be ending soon.
The reason we came up with this is because one of my other friends and her group of friends did that over the summer and I loved the little key chain she got from them. I thought it would be a good idea to do that with my friends. The reason we do this is not because someone else does but because it brings us closer. No matter what we do or how bad our life is we come together every wednesday of the second or fourth week of the month. It makes our friendship stronger.
I love the idea and how we come together to bring each other small little presents that might not mean anything to anyone else but means a lot to us. Each gift was picked out independently and we will cherish them in our hearts forever.
I am happy for my friends who will agree to doing appreciation days because I asked. I'm also happy for friends who appreciation one another and just let our friendship grow.
