Give them a surprise and tell them.

Do Something Unexpected.

Most people love a surprise, especially when that surprise is something that helps them or makes their life a little bit easier, if just for a minute. It could be as simple as a card to show appreciation “Just because,” or offering to watch the kids one night when it wasn’t your turn. It could be saying, “Hey, I’ll cook dinner tonight” or “Hey, I’ll take out the trash,” and then just doing it. Even simple actions can speak volumes, especially if the other person has had an especially difficult day. Imagine if it were your night to cook but you’ve had an especially difficult, stressful day. Your significant other knows this, and offers to cook instead. It’s a great expression of caring, even when it may seem too obvious or simple.

What you say is very true.It is nice to have a surprise.I do a lot of the cooking and cleaning.When I can.Unfortunenatly when a brain injury is involved,memory loss does get in the way.As has been told.It is the mans job to put out the rubbish,share the cooking and cleaning.Hang the washing.Wash the car.
I can only write simple words because my spelling is really bad.

Im very sorry to hear of your accident! And showing you care to those in your life on a regular basis is more challenging than it sounds. The people we hold closest and dearest to us are often the ones we expend the least amount of effort in displays of caring and affection. Yet, most people appreciate and need the occasional display of caring.

It’s not hard, but it does take a conscious effort on our parts, and one that we may need to remember to do at least once a week, if not every day.

I was disabled in a work accident.After a hospital stay of over 14 months,it does make a person,realize to place things in there place.Even though I am some times able to work.It is difficult to find.The idea of spending time with someone sounds a nice thought.

Yes,but what happens when you try to do as is asked.You say to them,what they want to hear.And it is never enough.Work hours are differant for a lot of people.What do you tell them.

I still believe society has placed too much attention on buying stuff as the solution for thoughtfulness. Mindful actions can help change that. We can still buy greeting cards and gifts if we want. Or, simply bake a loaf of bread to share. Enjoy a concert together. Go on a picnic and feast on fresh air.

Celebrate life by honoring those that bless the journey.
