Thinking of you and your family during this difficult time

When someone you love is going through a hard time, it's important to show them that you're there for them. This doesn't necessarily mean providing the best advice or crafting the perfect solution to a problem, either. Sometimes writing a card to someone who is going through something hard or dealing with grief can make the biggest difference. It's an easy, personal way to show your friend or family member that no matter what hardships they face, you're there for them. Just knowing that they've been on your mind may be the extra boost of encouragement they need to get through their day.

Knowing exactly the right words to write in a greeting card can be difficult, though. And depending on who you're writing the card to, it can be even more difficult. If you're not sure what to write in a thinking of you card to your friend, family member, partner, colleague, or anyone else, here are 50 ideas that will help you craft the perfect note. Just remember: The most important thing is that you're taking the time to let someone know you're there for them. The rest is just details.
