When the recipient opens up the package and reads the card, they are first overpowered by the fact that somebody exhausted their much valued time, effort and money on sending them a gift. The second emotion usually involves the message being expressed through the gift, which may be praise, acknowledgment, sympathy, or just thinking of you. This emotion usually sends the receiver into a euphoric state overcome by the thought of getting such a tremendous surprise and through the way the sender expressed his or her feelings or thoughts.
