You can really brighten someone's day with a simple
and sincere, "You look great in red," "That was a
terrific dinner," or "You did a super job."

To be a good listener you must REALLY listen. Let
the other person speak with no interrupting, no
daydreaming, no planning your response...just
listening!
THE GIFT OF AFFECTION:
Be generous with APPROPRIATE hugs, kisses, pats on
the back, and handholds. Let these small actions
demonstrate the love you have for family and friends.

Share your laughter and humor by clipping cartoons,
jokes, articles and funny stories. Your gift will
say, "I love to laugh with you!"
THE GIFT OF A WRITTEN NOTE:
You can send someone a simple note that says,
"Thanks for the help," or a poem, story, or any kind
of upbeat message. The most brief, handwritten note
can be remembered for a lifetime, and even change a
life, you just never know.
THE GIFT OF A FAVOR:
Every day, go out of your way to do something kind
for someone else. There are plenty of opportunities
for you to do something nice for a friend, relative,
or co-worker on a daily basis. Show the love of
Christ with your acts of kindness to others. Let
them see Jesus in you.
THE GIFT OF SOLITUDE:
There a times when we all want nothing better than
to be left alone. Be sensitive to those times and
give the gift of solitude to others.
