Well recently we had several birthdays all of which full of gifts. But the very special one that I'm going to talk about is a gift that i gave my mother. First of all i have to mention it was a surprise party so she hadn't any clue about neither the gift nor the party itself. My mom is crazy about flowers and the special one that she adores is the African Violet which has dozens of species and i have to say they are quite expensive so i ordered a rare one online, have it raped so she couldn't see it. When she unwrapped the gift she was speechless for a second. Seeing my mom so happy just made my day and i couldn't be happier.

Actually i always feel elated whenever i think of the gift i gave my little sister... I gave her an orthodontic treatment to correct the misalignment of her teeth. It was her graduation in college and that was one of her wishes on that special occasion. She was profoundly grateful of that gift and we are looking forward for her treatment to end so that we could see the improvement of her grin.

The latest gift I gave was during summer, 2013. I gave it to my sister when I visited her in Taiwan. She celebrated her 55th birthday. She appreciated this set of gold earrings that cost me 5000 Taiwanese dollars. They were shaped with red hearts. This lovely design was the symbol of our love.

Well, actually, I live this topic. I don't know but I just feel blast whenever I receive a gift from anyone. It just give me the sense that the person is caring about me. Anyway, the last gift I gave was to one of my closest friends on his wedding. I have to tell you that the gift is not by its price, but it just show that you care about other people. Long story short, I bought him a book, and the result why I bought him this book was because this book is thought provoking and it is just fascinating how can it help you in both your personal life and your career life as well. It's about emotional intelligence in which you would be able to manage your emotions effectively. In a nut shell, I ended up visiting him and he was on cloud nine as he really loved it. It just amazing and fascinating how small things can make someone's day. ( also I can speak more about I was confused between buying a gift that was expensive and I have to throw money down the drain or buying a gift that is simple but has a massive value).

The present I gave to my friend was a package of probiotics, which can improve the digestion. One of my friend often felt bolted and needed the help of bacteria. I'm sure that he can feel better after he took the pills as well as I'ok be glad to see that.
