We have to find the right &#8220;thing&#8221; to prove we love someone. Instead of purchasing &#8220;things&#8221; I challenge you to do something for someone. Instead of giving them a &#8220;thing&#8221; give them an experience, a time to treasure, an encounter that makes them realize you notice what matters most to them. Ideas for experiences: tickets to a play or musical, tickets to a concert, set up an unbelievable date filled with places that bring back memories, a stroll down memory lane, the possibilities should be tailored to that person&#8217;s relationship with you. It is quite a challenge but it is a gift that will last a lifetime if you do it for the other person. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stop thinking about &#8220;things&#8221; to purchase&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":18912,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[107],"tags":[46,53],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18909"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18909"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18909\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18912"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
