Some days need a shorter sentence than a pep talk. "Remember You Are Braver Than You Believe, Stronger Than You Feel, and Smarter Than You Think" is printed on a glossy ceramic heart, in a place she will pass every day of the season.

Hand pressed with the graphic fused under the glaze, so it holds up year after year. A hard year, a new chapter, a milestone, or no reason at all: this is the one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What do you give somebody who is going through something?
A: Something quiet and worded usually helps more than something expensive, because it says you noticed without asking them to explain. An ornament with an encouraging line does that in one object.

Q: Is the ceramic fragile?
A: Fired ceramic is sturdy in normal use and will take being hung, packed and unpacked for years. It will break on a hard floor, the same as any ceramic will.

Q: Can I give this without saying why?
A: Giving it without explanation is often the better version, since the words do the work and she gets to decide what they mean. No note is needed.

Q: Is it strange to give a Christmas ornament in the middle of the year?
A: Giving one in March is common with sayings like this, because the sentiment is not seasonal even if the hook is. She hangs it when December arrives.

Q: Who is this actually for?
A: It is bought for daughters, friends, sisters and colleagues in roughly equal measure, and just as often for the buyer herself. The line does not assume anything about the reader.

Q: Does it read as encouraging or as pitying?
A: The wording is a statement about her rather than a comment on her situation, which is why it lands as encouragement. Nothing on it refers to anything being wrong.
