Hi there. Christmas is gift giving time. The saying "its the thought that counts" is often said or heard. Indeed its not the amount of the gift that matters. Its remembering that someone on this special season. So, what could be the best gift you could give this christmas? Last week we have an exchange gift in our christmas party, i gave a friend a audio visual presentation of her pictures and video interview of her family. she liked it a lot. she has all the material things and the only gift i could give her that is really special is that video that I personally made. How about you? Thank you for sharing.

You are very creative and thoughtful my friend. Well if you will ask me I think, I have experienced a lot of Christmases in my life and have given out countless gifts as well. I now could not think of any better gift I could gift. It seems I have already given the best gifts I could afford so far. So my principle whenever I give gifts I make sure I give it out of love and not just to return favor. By doing so, each gift that I give no matter how simple or not so expensive will always be at my best because I would always want them to be pleased.

I have no material thing to give this Christmas. I have no much money to spare and share with others but I have my love to give them, which I have been giving to my friends, family and boyfriend everyday in my whole life. I think that no material thing can ever surpass the true love, care, trust and happiness that we could give to other people. I am actually just planning to give my boyfriend a digital scrapbook which includes only the two of us, how we have started and where we are now. I am still doing it and hopefully, it will be finished by next week as I will still send it for printing and binding. I hope that he will like it.

i think the best thing that i can give to my loved ones is my love, since i'm broke these days that's the only thing i can offer to them. and being with them is the most precious gift i can ever received.

I'm going to be really cheesy and say affection! True, a good gift will make your loved one happy but with an oncoming recession, if it's too hard to buy an expensive gift, make one to show your commitment to your family and friends and make a new year resolution to always be there for them - a gift is just a representation for the love we feel for someone right?
