The beauty of gift-giving is searching the perfect gift for those persons,
without further inquiry and avoiding discovery.
The joy there is having found the things that can make them truthfully happy.
The satisfaction lies on continuing to give, without expecting something in return.
This year, I prepared a total of 52 gifts for my love ones. (yup, what an extended family I have!)
It may have been a difficult task --- a tough bumpy effortful journey of searching, buying and wrapping gifts; but once done, and Christmas day came, and as I gave away the gifts, the curved lips forming into smiles and laughter were exquisite!
While joy can be found in the gifts we receive, there's still no greater gift than LOVE.
Have a joyous Christmas and a prosperous New Year! :)
* I did not put all of the gifts under the Christmas tree. They were so many, I can't even arrange them all! :)
