Graduation, weddings, baby showers and other events are celebrated and gifts given. Gift giving is the enrichment of human relationships, a process that requires more than material items. Probably the most important ingredient is the investment of yourself. Gifts that mean the most are those that reflect the personality of the giver and receiver.
Gift giving has nothing to do with the cost of the gift.
It is the sensitivity we show in making a special selection whether the gift is something you make with your special skills or a store-bought gift. Set money limits on gifts and stick to these limits. Remember, the money limits include credit purchases. With each credit purchase, the day of reckoning comes soon after the festivities. Easy credit charging should not put stars in your eyes and tinsel on the brain.
