7 Eight gifts that do not cost a penny !


1. The gift of
listening :

But you must REALLY
listen.

No interrupting, no
daydreaming,

No planning your
response.

Just listening.

2. 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
family and friends.

3. The gift of
laughter :

Clip cartoons.

Share articles and
funny stories.

Your gift will say,
“I love to laugh with you.”

4. The gift of a
written note :

It can be a simple

“Thanks for the
help” note or a full sonnet.

A brief, handwritten
note may be remembered

For a lifetime, and
may even change a life.

5. 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.

6. The gift of a
favour :

Every day, go out of
your way

To do something
kind.

7. 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.

8. The gift of a
cheerful disposition :

The easiest way to
feel good is

To extend a kind
word to someone.

Really, it’s not
that hard to say,

“Hello” or “Thank
You”.
