Friends we spend lot of time and money choosing the right gift for our beloved and cherished ones.
But we forget that the best gifts are available to us at our finger tips. These gifts do not cost a cent and are the most precious ones.
1.THE GIFT OF LISTENING.
But you must REALLY listen.
No interrupting, no daydreaming
No planning your response.
Just listening.
2.THE GIFT OF A COMPLIMENT.
A simple and sincere,
’You look great in red, ’’You did a super job’
or’That was a wonderful meal’
can make someone’s day.
3.THE GIFT OF AFFECTION.
Be generous with appropriate hugs,
kisses, pats on the back and handholds.
Let these small actions demonstrate the
love you have for family and friends.
4.THE GIFT OF A WRITTEN NOTE.
It can be simple
’Thanks for the help’ note or a full sonnet.
A brief, handwritten note may be remembered for
a lifetime, and may even change a life.
5.THE GIFT OF LAUGHTER.
Clip cartoons.
Share articles and funny stories.
Your gift will say, ’I love to laugh with you.’
6.THE GIFT OF SOLITUDE.
There are times when we want nothing better
than to be left alone.
Be sensitive to those times and give the gift of
solitude to others.
7.THE GIFT OF A FAVOR.
Every day, go out of your way
to do something kind. Help a friend
without his having to ask you.
ABOVE ALL, GIFT YOUR LOVE TO YOUR CHERISHED ONES
