Life is full of ups and downs. It is not always about the good things, bad things happen from time to time as well. Many are of the opinion that whatever comes in your way, no matter how much sorrow it brings to you, you have to take it in your stride and move on. But there is one very important prerequisite when it comes to moving on- you have to face the sorrow and then only will you be able to address it properly and find the right motivation for moving on. In order for us to address our sorrows and overcome them, nothing is more precious than support from friends and family.

However, sometimes due to unavoidable reasons we are separated from our loved ones when they suffer a loss, due to distance. Bu that does not mean that we have no way to let them know that we are there for them! You can send sympathy gifts online to show that you care. Even if we want to send gifts over in times like this, we are often at a loss as to what to send them. Here is a suggestion that fits best in times of sorrow like these.

Nothing says “I am there for you” better than a fruit basket. There are various reasons behind this choice. Let’s take a look at a few of them and then you can decide upon the validity of this statement yourself-

1. Because it’s healthy: When one loses a near and dear one, their life turns topsy-turvy. Their daily routine goes through a massive change. In times like this one is bound to become aloof and irregular with their eating habits. People often lose their appetite or express their disapproval over having regular meals. Fruits are loaded with vitamins which our body requires from time to time. So, if you have a bunch of fruits before you and even if you do not feel up for a proper meal, you can always take a bite or cut a slice. This way, the proper nutrients keep reaching your body so that one’s health does not get compromised when grieving.
2. Because you need to remain active: It is a reality that when a loved one departs from our midst, apart from the sorrow, there remains a lot of work which has to be done- like arranging the funeral, getting all the paper work in order and to take care of the elder members of the family. If one does not eat properly during this time, one might fall ill, which will hamper all the necessary work that needs to be done. So, if there is a fruit hamper, one can at least munch a few fruits if they suffer from a lack of appetite due to the sorrow which has befallen.

Tip: When you send a sympathy gift, no matter what it may be, make sure that you put some thought into it. Always add a personal note along with the gift to let the bereaved know that you are with them.

If for any reason you cannot be present physically in times of sorrow of a loved one, always make sure to let them know that you care with a sympathy gift and if circumstances permit, turn up at their doorstep to console them.
