Thanks, Giving, and the Value of it All
If someone bestowed upon you this wish, May you receive in life one-hundred times what you’ve given to others, would you consider it a blessing or a curse?
Most of the gifts for which we can be most thankful throughout a lifetime aren’t tangible at all. Don’t be ashamed if you can’t cram lavish gifts into your budget this holiday season. Instead, bestow the gifts which, if you were to receive them in-turn, one-hundred-fold, you’d be proud and very blessed.
You’re amazing,
Nora
