It depends on the person’s perspective. I send gifts because I love to see the smile on peoples faces, other people send gifts because they are forced, while some send gifts because they want people to comment on their show of kindness.
I feel important, loved and appreciated. Gifts have a way of reviving what ever sour mood I might be in. I love getting gifts.
Yes, my mom once gave me a mini gown, I loved the design and all but I hated the colour. It didn’t suit my skin, it was too flashy and made me look like an outdated old woman trying to be stylish. I would never be caught dead wearing something of such. So I gave it to someone who liked it. Though I didn’t tell her I disliked it.
I receive gifts a lot so it’s kind of hard to keep track. But if I am right I received a makeup kit from my sister 3 days ago. I don’t fancy makeup, I only do it once in a while but my sister feels I have. Good makeup face and thought it wise to give me a makeup kit which I love by the way.
I send a gift to people at different times, I don’t have a particular time. I don’t need to wait for a celebration before I give a gift. I believe that gifts should be given as a way of being thoughtful or as a form of appreciation and encouragement, so I tend to give a gift to people even if there is no occasion.
