Back Story
My husband has two sisters and the siblings and their spouses are very close, keeping in touch across geographic distances through frequent phone calls and WhatsApp messages. We try to have reunion meetups every few years, so the cousins can get to know each other. The cousins range in age from 25 to 16. For the reunion we had in December 2021, we were meeting at Christmas time so I wanted to get some meaningful gift that could be tailored to all the kids and the adults. I found these pen boxes with the name engraved on the pen, and any quote that could be added along with the name, on the lid of the box. So I chose the quotes on the box lid carefully, tailoring them to the interests of the sibling/niece/nephew.
Like “Teaching is turning mirrors into windows” for the Professor spouse, “March to the beat of your own drum” for the nephew who’s a drummer, or “You must be the change you wish to see in the world” for the social activist niece. Everyone appreciated that the quotes were personalized.
In order to preserve the privacy of the siblings/nieces/nephews, I’m sharing the photo of the box I bought for myself, as a reminder to me to not fret over things that have already happened:-)

Reaction to the gift:
