The best present is presence. Giving of ourselves is the greatest gift we can give someone. Here’s a top ten list for gifting presence:
10. Give a kind word.
9. Give a phone call.
8. Give laughter.
7. Give hugs.
6. Give encouragement.
5. Give listening to their story.
4. Give sharing your story.
3. Give a shared experience.
2. Give prayers.
1. Give gratitude.
The best present is not a thing. It’s a you. When you give your time to someone, it shows them that they matter. So give of yourself this holiday season. You will feel the warmth of your gift mirrored back, and that in itself is your gift in return. What better feeling for an empath?
