Birthday eCards help me be the kind of mom, friend, wife and employee that I want to be. How? These electronic greetings provide the perfect way to let someone know I’m thinking about them on their special day. They give me the ability to be thoughtful, witty, eco-conscious and frugal all in one package. And as a superwoman, with a million things to do and a zillion different directions to move, I appreciate all of the streamlining I can get.
Who doesn’t want to be a super-mom, a super-employee and a super-friend? Sure, we hear plenty of psychologists tell us women who have it all and do it all don’t exist. And while according to some standards they might be right, according to mine they aren’t. Is it possible to be a superwoman? The woman who s her family, excels at her job, sends Birthday E cards, vacuums weekly and still manages to shower every day? I say yes, of course it is. We just need to redefine what a superwoman is.
While it would be nice to imagine that superwomen are perfect, we know we aren’t. We miss garbage day on occasion, send our child to school without shoes and we might even sprout an occasional cold sore. Being the sort of woman you’ve always wanted to be isn’t about being perfect. Rather, it’s about being the sort of woman who strives to make herself and those around her happy. She does her best every day, nothing more and nothing less. And I find that with many of life’s little conveniences, like Birthday ecards, it is easy to do my best.
The little things like notes in lunchboxes, ironed sheets for guests, a holiday wreath on the front door and Birthday eCards go a long way in creating and sharing happiness. My mother, the ultimate in superwomen, always told me that “if you get the tiniest details right, the big picture will fall into place.” Over the years I’ve found her sage advice to be true.
To be the perfect friend, for example, I don’t have to buy expensive gifts or spring for extravagant lunches. Instead, I just need to consistently let those I care about know I am there for them. Sending Birthday E cards is a gentle reminder that I’m never more than a phone call or an email away.
These small acts of kindness, are, in their own way, acts of perfection. In the seconds that it takes me to select and send Birthday eCards, I am being the perfect friend. As I carefully choose a greeting guaranteed to make my girlfriend crack a smile, I am taking the time to let her know I care for her by sending some extra happiness her way. Sure, there are going to be days where I can’t meet up for some shopping or nights when my teenage daughter ties up the phone line so we can’t chat; but in that moment of sending Birthday E cards, I get to be the most thoughtful, considerate—and I daresay, perfect—friend that I know how to be.
Being super isn’t really about being perfect after all, it’s simply about redefining our perception of perfection. I may not have the time to attend planet awareness rallies, or protest environmental waste, but I can make eco-conscious choices, such as sending Birthday eCards over paper notes. I can’t look stunning one-hundred percent of the time, but I can throw a jacket on over my ketchup stained blouse while walking into work after leaving my toddler at daycare. Instead of becoming overwhelmed by the demands of my life, I can perfect the details of my life and trust that the rest will fall into place. And it really is the little things—a kind word to a child, Birthday E cards to friends, a for my husband— that make it all possible.
