What kinds of gifts did you give to your loved ones?
What kinds of gifts did you receive from them?
Gift-giving is a Christmas tradition that will always be there, no matter how people are, in terms of their economic standing because there are a lot of those who have lost their source of income and who are grappling to see the end of these challenges.
One of the most sought-after gifts for the last few years are tech gadgets and gizmos.
There are also those who go the old-fashion way of giving baked goodies like what we did to some of our relatives.
There are those who feel obligated to give expensive gifts especially to their children because these children seem to charm their way into having their parents part with their hard-earned money.
There are those who got the surprise of their lives as they got engagement rings and would start planning the big day after the holidays.
What about those who got new cars or even new homes? Wow, definitely wow.
But have we thought about those who don’t get any gifts given out of love? They did have some but these were given out of pity. How did they celebrate their Christmas?
