Eight Gifts*Below are eight gifts that don't cost a cent to give.*
1) THE GIFT OF LISTENING...But you must REALLY listen interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your response listening.*
2) THE GIFT OF AFFECTION...Be generous with appropriate hugs, kisses, pats on the back and hand holds.* 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 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.
May the Lord bless you in all you do. yort (TROY)
