A Little Box of Thoughtfulness

I got a package from my brother today! He told me he would be sending something, though I didn't know exactly what he was sending me. It was a small box with a number of random objects. It included a letter of explanation about the items, which I appreciated. Everything he put in there was for a reason. The bracelet had meaning, as did the homemade bookmark and the shark tooth and other objects. In all honesty, some of these things aren't very useful for my time here in D.C., but my brother wasn't aiming entirely for practicality. The gifts were very thoughtful. I felt that these objects were the result of his love and kindness for me. I know how hard it can be to come up with thoughtful and meaningful gifts, since I approach my gift-giving that way all the time. I am grateful for my brother's package to me. It was a little box of thoughtfulness, like a brotherly hug sent by mail. :)
