Gifts to Give to Someone You Love

  1. The gift of listening.....Try giving this to someone in need. And you must really listen.

No
   interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your responses. Just listen.



       2. The gift of signs of affection.....Be generous with your hugs, kisses and gentle squeezes of
      the hand. Let these tiny actions demonstrate the love inside of you.



      3. The gift of a note.....It can be as simple as "I Love You" or as creative as a sonnet. Put your
      notes where they will surprise your loved one.



      4. The gift of laughter.....Just cut out a cartoon, save a clever article. Your gift will say, "I love
     to laugh with you."



     5. The gift of compliment.....A simple "You look good in blue" or "Good supper" can be of
   greatest value to those who may feel they are being taken for granted.



  6. The gift of a favor.....Help with the dishes, run an errand, etc.....do it willingly.



     7. The gift of leaving alone.....There are times in our lives when we want nothing better than to
       be left alone. Become more sensitive to those times and give solitude.



  8. The gift of a cheerful disposition.....Try to be cheerful around those you love.



            9. The gift of a game.....Offer to play your loved one's favorite game. Even if you lose, you'll be a winner.



       10. The gift of prayer.....Pray for your loved ones and let them know you pray for them.

Treasures
 

Some folks I know, when friends drop in
To visit for awhile and chin,
Just lead them round the rooms and halls
And show them pictures on their walls,
And point to rugs and tapestries
The works of men across the seas;
Their loving cups they show with pride,
To eyes that soon are stretching wide
With wonder at the treasures rare
That have been bought and gathered there.

But when folks come to call on me,
I've no such things for them to see.
No picture on my walls is great;
I have no ancient family plate;
No tapestry of rare design
Or costly woven rugs are mine;
I have no loving cup to show,
Or strange and valued curio;
But if my treasures they would see,
I bid them softly follow me.

And then I lead them up the stairs
Through trains of cars and Teddy bears,
And to a little room we creep
Where both my youngsters lie asleep,
Close locked in one another's arms.
I let them gaze upon their charms,
I let them see the legs of brown
Curled up beneath a sleeping gown,
And whisper in my happiness:
"Behold the treasures I possess."
