Who do you want to be this holiday season? Someone who gives without expecting something in return, someone who is generous even at the expense of their own health and well-being, a person who knows how to have fun and not take themselves too seriously. Who do you want to be? Who do you want to be this holiday season? You already know the answer.
All gifts are equal. But some gifts are more equal than others. Here are some suggestions for gifts that you can give anyone this holiday season.
Do you want to be someone who gives without expecting anything in return? If so, write a holiday card to your mother, your sister, or anyone else whom you think would truly appreciate receiving a personalized gift such as this one. The card will show that you thought about someone and took some time to find out their holiday status. It also shows that you didn't waste your time thinking of nothing but a gift for someone.
Do you want to be someone who is generous with her gifts this holiday season? Go out and spend time with relatives and friends. At the holiday table, bring out the silverware and the candles. At the dance, put on a good show and ask people to take home a souvenir from your performance. A great thank you gift shows that you cared enough to share your time and talent with those special people. And it's the least you could do to say thank you to everyone who attended the party to celebrate your special day.
What about if you don't want to give someone a gift? You can always have a fabulous time without spending a single penny, thanks to the wonders of technology. All you need to do is get online, start surfing around, and look for websites that offer free or inexpensive entertainment for the whole family. If you're feeling nostalgic for something from your childhood, you might want to watch a few old movies that you can't find any reruns on DVD.
Who do you want to be this holiday season? It doesn't matter as long as you choose the right gift. Make sure you give someone a gift that says you were thinking of them. Share your feelings for them with them. Just because you aren't doing anything this holiday season doesn't mean that you can't do something that will mean so much to the people around you. That makes this holiday season one that should be full of joy and happiness, because that's what it's all about.
