It's Better To Give Then To Receive
As I've matured, I've realized the pleasure one receives when giving a gift. Gift-giving isn't about receiving a dumb object that you'll someday grow bored with. Gift-giving is about embracing (and cherishing) the relationship you've developed with the person receiving the gift, and giving him or her something that he or she will someday love, and enjoying the happiness he or she feels when opening that gift. This Christmas I gave to my grandma a comfortable blanket, because she puts a blanket on me after therapy. She's sometimes at my house, and she has a knack for tucking a person in for a nap. Since she became / has been the Master Tucker-Inner, I decided to give her a comfortable blanket to re-pay her for her service to my comfort.
