What to write in a just because card

12 lines you can use as they are. Change a word so it sounds like you — a borrowed sentence in your own handwriting still reads as yours.

Le righe
  • No occasion. Don't go looking for one.
  • I thought about you on a Wednesday and did something about it for once.
  • Nothing needed back and nothing coming.
  • You got me through 2021 and I've never said so in writing.
  • Ordinary Tuesday. Ordinary box. Still glad you're my sister.
  • Not your birthday. I checked.
  • I was in a good mood and you were the person I thought of.
  • This is not an apology or a request. It's just mail.
  • Thinking of you, for no reason anyone would call a reason.
  • Mom, it's not Mother's Day and I know it. That's the point.
  • You've been on my mind since that phone call. Nothing more than that.
  • Eat these in the good chair.

If you only remember one thing

Short and specific beats long and general. “I still think about you driving me to the airport at five in the morning” does more work than three sentences of sympathy, because only you could have written it.
