Over the last several years during the holiday season gift giving it had become about what the gift was or amount spent. This year gifts are going to be more about a thought behind the gift and the creativity used. I thought a neat thing I heard recently is how some charities are having parents work with their children to learn the art of giving to other people in need. Depending on the charity, children are taught to shop for others, create crafts, wrap gifts and most importantly giving the gift directly to another person to feel the joy of giving.
This season think about a gift that you can give someone that will touch their soul vs. just giving a gift without thought.
I totally agree. I think the fact the everyone is going to have to curtail their spending is going to lead to a much more meaningful holiday.
