Finding Your Inner Wisdom

The Greatest Gift

Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.
​~ Ben Carson

So often at this time of the year, your thoughts go to what gift will you give a friend or family member for the holiday.  Or, maybe you have a “wish list” of what you would like to receive. Commercials and ads begin to run in October for the holiday buying season and it seems as though the holiday season is getting earlier and earlier in the year. 

What if this season you took time to give the greatest gift of all . . . the gift of you? No matter what your spending budget may be, the gift of you cost nothing but your time and effort.  You have many gifts to offer others and these types of gifts are priceless!

You may even want to reconsider your wish list.  Rather than a material gift, there may be something that you want to do that would be easier with the help of another person.  Many will feel honored that you considered them to help you with something.  They are helping you and it is uplifting for them.  That’s a gift that goes both ways!

​The act of giving to someone is just as important for the person giving the gift as the person receiving the gift.  You may have a hard time accepting gifts, payments or acts of kindness from others.  Many people do.  When you don’t accept what someone wants to give you, then you are denying them the joy of giving to you.  Accept the gift and allow them to experience the joy of giving!

I believe that most people truly prefer the gift of you over anything material.  If you are having a hard time thinking of what “gifts of you” that you could give to someone, let’s look at some possibilities. 
  • Can you offer to babysit for a couple who rarely takes time to go out for a date night? Maybe they have no one to care for their child so they don’t take time for themselves. 
  • Could you visit an elderly neighbor or family member who is not able to get out?  Spending time visiting with them, cleaning their home or preparing a meal for them is sure to make them happy. 
  • Could you volunteer at your friend’s or relative’s favorite non-profit organization? 
  • Could you volunteer at your friend’s or relative’s favorite non-profit organization?  Give the gift of your time to help others and your friend or relative will be grateful for the additional time supporting the organization. 
There are many gifts you can give anyone, whether they are on your “gift giving list” or not.  Patience and a kind word for all the retail workers, especially at this time of year, goes a long way to brighten their day.  When you smile or say a few thoughtful words to someone, watch how that simple act of kindness affects them in a positive way.  When someone comes into your thoughts, energetically send them love.  They will feel it on some level, no matter where they are in this world!

Gifts are given more at this time of the year than any other time.  What if this year, you started a new tradition of giving the gift of you?  Maybe this type of gift giving will become so popular that the holiday gift season will be all year long!   As you do this and model for others, think about all the ways you are making this a better world for everyone!  You being YOU is a gift!
