Eight Gifts That Cost Not A Cent
- 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 & handholds. Let these small actions demonstrate the love you have for family & friends.
- THE GIFT OF LAUGHTER... Clip cartoons. Share articles & funny stories. Your gift says "I love to laugh with you."
- THE GIFT OF A WRITTEN NOTE... 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.
