If you find joy in taking the time to shop for or create something special, it is likely you will be disappointed in the response with the current mindset of our society. To truly give and find joy, you must first start by giving without expectation. Expectation of recieving a particular response or reciprical gift defeets the very purpose of giving. Instead, try proccessing your purpose before your purchase. Here are a few nuggets of knowledge to get you started on your journey of generosity:
Why are you giving this person a gift, what do they mean to you?
Keep it simple, money does not buy love, thoughtfulness and time do!
Consider sight, sound, scent, taste, touch & emotions when choosing something.
Consider the length of time the gift will last.
By combing over this thought process, you will be on your way to mastering the lost art of giving.
