Eight Gifts that Do
Not Cost A Cent
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... Clip cartoons. Share articles and funny stories.
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.
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. |
