YOUR FAVORITE ITEM, MINE BUT ALSO DO YOU HAVE ONE? August 27, 2005

I have to admit that all the gifts given to me mean a lot to me. I can’t really say I have one single gift/item in particular that is an absolute favorite. I love all my crosses. I think they’re all really beautiful. I love my poetry books with tons of historical poems depicting time eras of history. Its amazing I love all my downloaded cd’s pictures on cd, saved old writing, old photos, my musical tapes, lotions, candles, pillows, blankets, sheets, shoes, bags, purses, magazine pictures, hand watch, necklaces, earrings, clothes and collages I did myself. I’d give it all at the snap of a finger if it meant the well-being of my family and David. They’re more important than any worldly possession. Things can be replaced, not people. For now, I really do love everything I have very much. I hold things close to my heart and never think any gift is a dumb or thoughtless gift. The thought alone that another went out of their way for me is honestly a gift in itself. That means that person really loves you. When I go shopping I’m always keeping my family in mind all the time. I know that its better to give than to receive a lot of the times. Its nice to give gifts but to see a light in another’s eyes is an even better gift than ever. Going out of your way to help others is also a gift also. All of this also means good things happen to you too. One Christmas comes to mind where I was given a book for Christmas and I just thought it was so touching from my mom that I cried. It was very beautiful and thoughtful. Mom thought it was because she hardly got me anything for Christmas. That was hardly the case. Mom one Christmas also gave Jerry, or she wrapped it up for me but was supposed to give it to me. Well, she did anyways but that was a big oops. I got a lot of my gift giving ideas from my aunts who give gifts in bundles. Giving a lot of stuff in a plastic laundry basket is rather a really good idea. You put a lot of stuff in there. Perhaps everyone’s greatest gift of all is the gift of life. Truly and honestly we’re here for a purpose to carry out your life with kindness, goodness and warmth. Also, to spread the word of God to everyone uniting as eternal friends. Overall, gifts are given/received with love and tooken with heart. My family, friends and boyfriend. I wouldn’t trade any of them for the world. As personal things I do love the things listed above. I enjoy my clutter of gifts and hardly every throw anything away. I keep most things dear to heart. Every object/things shares a story, creates another nice memory and brings me back to the time I was given the gift. I even like to self give. That’s very important. With self gifts you can easily give them away or even exchange. Or if you get tired of it or gets old then less likely I’ll feel guilty when getting rid of it. Homemade gifts are made favorite. They’re made with true love, thought, the persons uniqueness and talent. This is my favorite of all gifts. Even homemade cards, handwritten letters/cards mean a lot. Getting candy is really cool too. Oh clothes are super really cool too.
