Makin A List

The lists abound for all the gifts people would like for Christmas.  There is another list out there though that is the real gift list.  I mean the list of gifts we bring to the world.  Compassion, love, hugs, understanding, laughter, and comfort are but of a few things on the real list.   You can also find listening, smiles, or maybe the gift of a heartfelt touch.  We all are born with a set of gifts and have the ability to give those gifts 365 days a year.  These are all gifts that make a difference in the world.  I lump them all together and call them the gifts of blessings. Each thing listed above can make a difference in someone’s life.    

As you gather with friends and family over the next couple of days, be generous with your gifts of blessings. Giving the gifts of compassion, love, and understanding will stay with someone long after the holidays.  Make your list and check, it twice, it does not matter if they have been naughty or nice. Happy gift giving my friends.
