Get the Engrate mug.A transcending and magical feeling that someone or something has been brought into your life from the universe to immerse your entire being with a sense of purpose and hope. To say you are merely “ lucky” to have been given such a gift would be insulting to the magnitude of its light and loveliness. To be engraced means your life has been illuminated in a way that is immeasurable and will be deeply treasured forever and always.
