Eight Gifts That Do Not Cost a Cent
- The Gift of Listening...
But you must really listen. No interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your response. Just listen.
- The Gift of Affection...
Be generous with appropriate hugs, kisses, pats on the back and handholds. Let these small actions demonstrate the love you have for your family and friends.
- The Gift of Laughter...
Clip cartoons. Share articles and funny stories. Your gift will say, "I love to laugh with you."
- The Gift of a Written Note...
A brief, handwritten note may be remembered for a lifetime, and may even change a life.
- The Gift of 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.
- The Gift of a Favor...
Every day, go out of your way to do something kind.
- The Gift of 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.
- The Gift of a Cheerful Disposition...
The easiest way to feel good is to extend a kind word to someone: really it's hard to say, "Hello" or "Thank You."
