Give of yourself
The best gift you can give is to give of yourself. Your time, 
your attention, your love and caring are far more valuable 
than anything that could be wrapped up in a brightly colored 
box. 
When you give of yourself you discover how very effective 
you can be. When you give of yourself someone else receives 
great benefit, and so do you. 
Give a little kindness, or patience, or understanding or 
love. Give encouragement, and attention, and assistance, and 
time. 
You always have what it takes to give of yourself. For in 
every situation, there is something valuable and positive 
that you can offer. 
Sure, you could spend your moments feeling sorry for 
yourself or wishing you were somewhere else. Or, you could 
choose to give of yourself and create a beautiful experience 
out of wherever you may find yourself. 
When you make the world a better place for others, you have 
the good fortune of living in that world too. Give of 
yourself, for it is the most sincere, meaningful and 
valuable gift you can give.
