Chocolate and flowers are traditional gifts that are welcome, but you know what? Chocolates have a way of disappearing and flowers die after a while. A Timeless Message in a Bottle lasts throughout thick and thin, ups and downs of life as a memento of your love, devotion and appreciation for a special person. Valentine’s Day, is, of course, a time to exchange love messages and a Timeless Message in a Bottle is about as romantic as you can get and has the staying power of the gift that keeps on giving.
You are no doubt familiar with the countless stories of messages in bottles that have been dropped into lakes, rivers and oceans that eventually washed ashore to be found, sometimes with happy consequences. Such is the story of Paolina and Ake Viking who were married in Sicily in the autumn of 1958, thanks to a far-traveling bottle. Two years earlier Ake, a bored young Swedish sailor on a ship far out at sea, had dropped a bottle overboard with a message asking any pretty girl who found it to write. Paolina’s father, a Sicilian fisherman, picked it up and passed it to his daughter for a joke. Continuing the joke, Paolina sent off a note to the young sailor, and the correspondence quickly grew warmer. Ake visited Sicily, and the marriage followed their first meeting.
Fun story, but every message is different and you have choices as to the love message you want to send. Timeless Message has over 40 pre-written messages to choose from, or you can allow your own muse to take flight. Either will make for a romantic gift idea sure to be treasured far into the future.
Just imagine the smile on your “Valentine’s” face upon receiving such a thoughtful romantic gift. You can always add some chocolate as well for the traditional touch. That would make it something for within and something to hold on to. Nice unique gift idea, don’t you agree?
I hope this and other valentine goodies will make this season fun for you.
