The Best Gifts In The World

In the economy of the heart these presents are priceless. This simple
checklist can help measure how you are nurturing your relationships.


1. The Gift of Listening
The best gift you can give anyone is to listen to really listen. Do
not interrupt, do not daydream and most important do not plan your
response. Just listen.

2. The Gift of a Smile
Besides making you look beautiful, a smile is contagious and helps to
spread happiness.

3. The Gift of Laughter
Enjoy your moments together. Share articles and funny stories. Clip
cartoons. Your gift will say, "I love to laugh with you."

4. 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.

5. The Gift of Service
Everyday, go out of your way to do something kind for someone.......
it could also be a stranger.

6. 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.

7. The Gift of a Compliment
The easiest way to feel good is to extend a kind word to someone. 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.

8. **The Gift of Affection**
Be generous with your smiles, hugs, kisses, pats on the back and
handholds as appropriate. Let these small actions demonstrate the
love you have for your family and friends.

9. The Gift of Prayer
The most precious gift of all! Never fails to work!
