After Christmas Returns


A gift consists not in what is done or given, but in the intention of the giver or doer.” ― Seneca

A recent news article detailed the five top reasons people return or exchange gifts after Christmas.

1. It is not the recipient’s taste.
    Did you really think I would look good in aqua pink green?
2. It is the wrong size.
    Do I really look that thin to you?
3. It will never be used.
    The chimney umbrella seems like a neat idea!
4. It is too personal.
    Thank you for the thong swimsuit!
5. It suggests you think the recipient should change something about themself.
    Twelve steps to what?

There may have been the odd one or two presents under the tree yesterday, but just remember that most people give from the heart and that was the intent of the "dogs playing poker" velvet tie you received.

Enjoy the after Christmas after-glow.

Stay inspired my friends!
