let me say this!
What is the best gift, to give someone, is what you want give them? is it what they want?
is it money? is it your time? or it is just smile and hug?
once the gife is gieven, it is they to do what they want to do with, is no longer use or mine.
about 5 years ago I give gift to an friends, six months later she was selling at garage sell, she saw me looking at the gift, she start to say something, but before did, I say the gift is yours not mine,
so she sold it, and ok with me. I have friend who when she get if gift she have no use for, so pass on to someone who can use it.
for me, what most welcome gift is your time, an email, and phone call, a day out of my house is great gift.
what do you think?
ps
after I wrote this, this thought came to mind, pray is gift too, sometime, what we need most pray.

yeah, I think the sharing from the heart is often the best gift. I have saved meaningful letters from people for years because I like to go back and read them again. I hope no one ever feels obligated to give me a gift, either because it's Christmas, or my birthday, or whatever. I love receiving gifts from people, though, because I enjoy the feeling that went into it and how they wanted to show their care for me in that way. Moral? -- don't ever give me a gift unless there's heart behind it!
I don't enjoy presents nearly as much as gifts. The difference for me? A present is a material thing that you give someone simply because it is customary to give someone something on that day (Birthday, Christmas, etc.) A gift is something that you give someone from your heart, because you love them.
