The Gift
The Cost None ~ The Value Priceless
THE GIFT OF LISTENING
But you must
REALLY
listen.
No interrupting, no daydreaming,
no planning your response.
Just listening.
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.
THE GIFT OF LAUGHTER
Clip cartoons. Share articles and funny stories.
Your gift will say, "I love to laugh with you".
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.
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.
THE GIFT OF A FAVOR
Every day, go out of your way to do something kind.
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.
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
.
