I take pride in the gifts I give. For me, it is an opportunity to let someone know that he or she is special. I pick my gifts with that specific person in mind. I love the tireless hunt for the right gift and the exhiliration of looking at it before I wrap it. Oh, I get the most attractive wrappers and wrap all gifts with careful precision. I guess I got this from Mama.
This morning, I gave out my gifts to my officemates and their children. As I gave them their gifts, I am tickled to imagine their reaction when they open it. I am blessed to be in a position where I receive "Thank you" for something I have done or something I have given. I rate my day according to the number of "Thank you" I receive. I do not need to hear it said. I just see the look of a person whose life I touched and feel it. It is such a humbling experience.
