8 Gifts

Listening

But you must REALLY listen. No interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your response. Just listening.

Affection

Be generous with appropriate hugs, kisses, pats on the back and handholds. Let these small actions demonstrate the love you have for family and friends.

Laughter

Clip cartoons. Share articles and funny stories. Your gift will say, "I love to laugh with you".

A Written Note

It can be 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.

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.

A Favor

Every day, go out of your way to do something kind.

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.

A Cheerful Disposition

The easiest way to feel good is to make others feel good.
