Christmas celebrations take place once a year, and it important that it’s the most memorable day for you and your loved ones. However, finding the best gifts to match the each person is a difficult task. Buying the most expensive gift you can find is not the same as a home-made gift. The gift should be filled with love and gratitude towards them.
In saying this, giving you mom the same present for her kitchen every year is not something you should be proud of. Put more effort in your gift selection each year and the person receiving them will have a nice surprise rather than an expected surprise. So, to make the day of your loved ones even more special its crucial to take your time in finding all of your perfect Christmas gifts.
Gifting is considered an act of selflessness and love is the greatest of all gifts. When one gets to accept this fact, every other gift will be special to them!
What to consider while choosing your gifts?
While choosing a gift for you family or friends, one should consider the following:
- Your Christmas gift should be tailored to their personalities, likes, hobbies & most of all their individual character.
- Your gift should make them feel that you’ve spent time finding it. Buying the most expensive present you can think of is not going to show them you care as much as a gift that shows them you know what they like or need. This will help them feel gratitude every time they use it or look at it.
- It could be something that improves the quality of their life, or bring joy to them.
- And it most definitely should be something they do not already own or have something similar to.
About Christmas & Religion
Have you ever wondered why we exchanges gifts every Christmas? The reason behind the tradition of presenting and receiving gifts was to remind us of the presents given by the Wise Men to the Jesus on his birth. The three gifts Jesus received was Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh.
Gold: This represents his Kingship, to acknowledge he is the King of Kings.
Frankincense: It is a symbol of holiness used in churches while worshipping God.
Myrrh: A holy anointing oil, used on dead bodies to avoid the bad smell.
