My friend’s birthday is coming soon. This is, of course, good. But there are two problems: first, it can be very difficult to choose a gift for her, I have understood this well in ten years. And the second – how do you know that you also liked this gift?
She is a beautiful, talented girl, and a fiery character and a fantastic temperament are attached to this set of virtues. Let’s add a successful career and irrepressible curiosity to the cocktail, and we’ll get a person who needs to be given either a flight to the moon with an indispensable selfie against the background of the stars, or our own villa in Malibu. And it’s not a fact that she will like it – maybe she just wanted a teddy bear?
Of course, I asked her a couple of unobtrusive questions, but in response I heard: “Oh, don’t make it up, my best present is you!” Of course, the idea of enchanting jumping out of the cake to her at the height of the holiday is at least original, but still not that. Having scoured the Internet in search of useful advice, I finally decided – it is necessary to give emotions of sincere feelings, you will not go wrong. When was my star happiest this year? Perhaps, during our joint trip to Thailand, where we lounged on the beach together, wandered among silent boulders and ancient temples, listened to the legends of local residents, and my heroine rode an elephant three times. But where can I get her an elephant in Yekaterinburg? Will I bring you from the zoo? She is unlikely to be happy. And the elephant, of course, will not be happy.
I suddenly realized that I was tired of inventing. And this very fatigue just gave me an idea – the vacation was a long time ago, and, therefore, my friend is also tired. And now there is no way to overseas countries – autumn, the influx of clients, contracts, meetings, and laughing carefree Thailand floats away like a small cloudless island of happiness.
I wish I could go back there now … The ocean throws cheerful sunny bunnies in your face. Palm trees quietly rustle their crowns, in small street markets they sell the freshest fruits and all kinds of marine exoticism, and the skillful hands of Thai masseuses allow you to feel alive and feel every muscle in your body. Teleport! How would it be useful to me now. It’s a pity that it hasn’t been invented yet.
But if we cannot go there, then we need to find here that blissful feeling of relaxation, the very point where you are in harmony with yourself and the world. If you bring back the memory of the golden bliss of sand and sea even for a few hours, it will be an ideal gift! No sooner said than done. I will find Thailand in Yekaterinburg! On the way to my own and friend’s happiness, nothing will stop me!
The first problem has been resolved – I have come up with what to give. But here’s how to know if my choice will be pleasant? About where the search took me and how the adventure ended – on the next page of the diary.
