Christmas gifts are always precious
Yes it hurts to see people judging gifts with its usefulness and price.
Author Patrick Moore tried to make some good points in his article Stopping Shopping at Christmas. I do feel that I need not buy precious gifts for my fiancée to show my affection to her. She can feel it very well that how much I love her; however, I will buy one for her this Christmas. And I will shop for my parents, my brother, my grandma and for my friends too. They won’t mind nothing if I don’t buy anything for them, but I don’t want to miss the million dollar smile on their face when I present them with the gifts.
Patrick commented about the story of O. Henry:
Both hair and watch are gone, making the gifts all the more poignant.
However, I feel that both the gifts became sweeter and that’s the essence of the love: sacrificing your greatest possession for your love even when it is not necessary.
And we should not forget about txtreasure also. She has a great family, lovingly kids who are caring and considerate. Buying gifts for them is not a compulsion but it’s a kind of happiness that all the mothers would cherish. And what community did for her is simply great.
Also if we go through the What was your best present ever? thread in DebtCC forums, we can easily understand that gifts are not evaluated by money, usefulness nor the height weight and length; but the way it is presented.
I can’t help but defer Patrick Moore on his article about Christmas gifts. When I had no money, I used to prepare cards by my own and sent them to my friends! I will buy Christmas gifts in future also. And I am ready to cut my budget on other accounts to buy Christmas gifts. It’s not a stress, it’s a relief.
