“Gift Giving and the Receiving of Gifts”

It’s the Thought That Counts!

There are some people… that are just a little more on the wiser side than most of us… and they will start to plan for “Christmas” in JULY… only because, they have more time to think about, what they  will be doing … in that exciting month of December!

Just because… when you take the time to really  think about it… “Christmas” has a way of getting here… so much  faster… than you can make up your mind, as to what you fully plan on doing.

STOP and Think … right NOW…  first …about your Pocketbook!

“YOU…Do not want to start the year off in the “RED!”

Usually, we think that we should go all out and spend top dollar… on a whole lot of stuff …for all of the family and  so many friends, which is just so wrong to do, today.

Now, is the time to start doing those things that we are gifted with, our natural talents.

What nice things can we make,  and we all have so many creative talents … that we could put to good use to make something extra special … something that has our time and inspired feelings of “LOVE” shining through.

Some of us can draw and paint and  we can make up extra special  artistic pieces worth “millions” … if only  we utilize our time and put some extra special  thought to all of those details that are needed to  go into this finished product.

Sewing is another way of making some  terrific items that can be used in the kitchen, and  also in those bathrooms, and also… there are lots of other  extra special places throughout  the entire home.

Everybody  and especially those family  members… all know, that  anything made by hand has the highest and greatest value, way over any amount of money you could ever spend.

I have  many items… that my Mother and Aunt have made,  so very many years ago, and I just cannot part with these “TREASURES”  that were made with LOVE  and  and special feelings from their heart!

Today, we just do not take the time to make some of the beautiful things that we could be making and would be cherished for all generations – we just seem to not… have that little extra time?

Do not spend what you cannot afford… TODAY!

Remember –  NOW and Forever… that which we all say – it’s the thought that counts… and given with a big smile… The LOVE shines through … making this…  just the very best  “GIFT” that they  have ever received!

In todays’ world … It is that LOVE and Kindness,  that shows up with that great big smile on your face… that for sure  Friendship in all  that you do… and or give to one another.

Rather than ever  going into debt – just an extra special little note to that friend and or family  member… or that special someone … your note  of course stating …that your gift will be  of  some extra  special “TIME”  spent together… doing that which,  you both would love to enjoy – something that you will both remember, forever.

“Friendship and time – is that  “MILLION DOLLAR” gift!”

Don’t break the bank –

Speak volumes in Love and Time – a moment of “TIME” … is all that we really own and can ever give – and the receiver will remember –  YOU – forever!
