1) THE GIFT OF
LISTENING . . .
But you must
REALLY listen.
No interrupting,
no daydreaming, no planning your response.
Just listening.
2) 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.
3) THE GIFT OF
LAUGHTER . . .
Funny pictures.
Share articles, funny stories and funny greetings. Your gift will
say, "I love to laugh with you."
4) THE GIFT OF A
WRITTEN NOTE . . .
It can be a
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 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.
6) THE GIFT OF A
FAVOR . . .
Every day, go
out of your way to do something kind.
Helping elderly
cross the road can be nice.
7) 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.
8) THE GIFT OF A
CHEERFUL DISPOSITION . . .
The easiest way
to feel good is to extend a kind word to someone, really it's not that
hard to say, Hello or Thank You.
Enjoy
your gifts as they cost you nothing. Please share and use these gifts as
God would want you to.
