It’s your cousin’s birthday, but you forgot to send a gift. Fear not, the best (and last) thing to give is words. In fact, according to Charles F. Kettering, the most important thing we can give is our time. Now you’ve already done this by reading this post (hint hint), but nonetheless here are some belated birthday wishes for cousin to read over coffee that will make her/him smile regardless of whether they’re left or right-brained.
