Gifts





Hello and welcome back to my blog. It is the Holiday Season and you guessed it right, the season of gifts.  What is a gift? A gift is something that one gives someone willingly, without payment.  It is also known as ‘Present’.   What is the greatest gift that the divine has given?  The greatest present that the maker or creator has endowed on man is probably the present moment in which he/she is breathing and smiling from his/her heart.

Here is my very own interpretation of the word ‘GIFT’. I look upon the word ‘GIFT’ as an acronym  formed by the initial letters of the following multi-word name.

G – Generosity of the spirit

I – Innovative/Inspiring towards noble deeds

            F- Festivity

            T – Timeless

               Do you not think that a ‘GIFT’ actually embodies and encompasses all the attributes above? A ‘GIFT’ is a direct reflection of the generosity of the giver’s spirit.  A true ‘GIFT’ is aimed to inspire the recipient towards better and nobler goals and deeds.  I usually ‘GIFT’ innovative or new things. A ‘GIFT’ makes the atmosphere festive.  Of course, a well-thought-out gift is timeless and priceless. So there It is. A ‘GIFT’ is truly remarkable, when thought in this way. Is it not?

              So what are you waiting for?  Think, run and grab the best gifts for your near and dear ones this holiday season for

                                 ‘GIVING OPENS THE WAY FOR RECEIVING !’

                After all,
                                 ‘NO-ONE HAS EVER BECOME POOR BY GIVING!’

                On another level, let me put it this way,

                                ‘ THE MEANING OF LIFE IS TO FIND YOUR GIFT.
                                 THE PURPOSE OF LIFE IS TO GIVE IT AWAY.’

               What I mean is this. If you have a wonderful voice, sing and make others happy. If you are a good painter, paint on your canvas and share it with the world. If you are a good cook, prepare delicious meals and share it with your near and dear ones. What ever is your gift or god-given talent, it is for the good and benefit of  those around you. Use it wisely and for the good of those aroung you.

                Let me conclude my post with the following quote:


                                          ‘BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO CAN GIVE WITHOUT                   
                                           REMEMBERING  AND TAKE
                                           WITHOUT FORGETTING!’

                 And do not forget, YOU are a GIFT to this world ! Make sure your presence makes everyone around you happy !         

Merry Christmas And A Happy New Year !
