Another year’s almost done, can you believe it? Feels like just yesterday we were all huddled together, making questionable resolutions and promising to finally learn how to knit (or was that just me?). And now, here we are again, facing down the same old struggle of finding the perfect words to express how much our friends and family mean to us.

But let’s be honest, “Happy New Year” sometimes feels a little… hollow, doesn’t it? Like a greeting card sentiment that lacks the genuine warmth and personality of our actual friendships. Scrolling through endless generic messages, struggling to stand out from the digital deluge, can leave you feeling less like a thoughtful friend and more like a spam bot.
