| "When
my niece sent me this gift with her parents, I was very thankful.
Just knowing that she had taken the time to send me something,
meant the world to me. We live in different countries and
don't see each other very often, so just the thought of her
thinking about me made me very emotional.
When I opened this gift and realized that
she had contacted over 20 members of our family to have them
write something to me-- it was life changing. I had in the
past many strong arguments with many of them to the point
that we had stopped talking to each other. I struggled for
years with feelings of loneliness thinking that my own family
didn't care about me.
I broke in tears as I was reading the messages.
Messages even from those who I thought we would never talk
again. Those words were like balm for my wounded heart. It
made me realise those walls I thought they were separeting
us, never existed. I turned to my family grateful and humbly.
I apologize to each of one for all the grudges I had held
against them for so many years. I can say today that every
single relationship that was broken is now restored because
of this gift.
I read those words every day and to all my
friends. I'm 87 years old and "The Silver Box" has
been the greatest sample of love that I have ever recieved
in my life. It reminds me everyday of the great love my family
has for me and the love I have for them. "The
Silver Box" changed my life forever!."
