Why are greeting cards important?

They are a way to say things to people you feel uncomfortable to say directly. Also, they can be expressive for people who don't know how to express themselves. Greeting cards are important because these enable us to really tell what we want to say and show what we feel towards the person whom you're giving it to. These are the safest yet also the sweetest gift because through these, we are able to pour our heart out and say what we're not able to say in person. This is primarily the reason why greeting cards are kept - because they simply have the magic to touch hearts through the message that they contain.
