"Does size really matter..." 'Judith Whitehead' (Inspirational Monday)

Judith Whitehead is back guest-blogging on this Inspirational Monday talking  about it's not the size of the gift but rather the remembrance...  Judith lives in Amherst N.Y.  She has worked in the ophthalmology field of medicine for almost 30 years...




Is It Better to Give or Receive and does size really matter?

It is during this time of year that we are witness to gift giving and gift exchanges everywhere; we give gifts to co-workers, bosses, postal workers, hairdressers, friends and family to name a few. It turns out, it isn't the size of the gift that counts, it is the remembrance that matters most. I decided this year to give my co-workers lottery tickets this year. They are a little something to let them know I remembered them without spending a whole lot of money. It made them smile the whole day, especially since some of them were winning tickets! The corporation I work for gave all the employees large gift cards to Target; that put a big smile on my face, guess where I will be doing my grocery shopping this week. My son and and his fiance bought me a red fry pan that I was in need of for my morning feast. It was small but meant a lot since I really needed one and they remembered that I had mentioned it long ago. Our mail lady really appreciates the small gifts I give her every year and sends me a profuse thank you every year; it's not the size of the gift, but the remembrance. So, for those wanting to give gifts to those loved ones this year, give it some extra thought. Anything hand made or heart felt is what counts the most.
