I don't know about you, but we don't need anything for Christmas. Everything we want we usually buy ourselves or if we don't have it, it is because it is too expensive to get and need to save for. We have a lot of friends that are the same. We know people who really you can rack your brain for weeks on what to get them, but either they already have it, don't need or want it, or it's out of the price range you want or can spend on them.
I read this article posted on a friend's blog about 31 Days of Giving back. Some of the things are not really anything I would do (like giving manicures at a local nursing home) But others are great ideas of ways to donate to causes in affordable amounts that I thought could be done on behalf of those friends who have everything. Here is the link to the article. I think it could make a world of difference for someone else while sharing the Christmas Spirit with the friends who have everything!
Remember, it is the season to remember friends and family and it is not what you give to them, but the caring thought behind it. Anyone can give a gift card, but a thoughtful friend will give you a gift card to a place that you frequent! Show the love of the season, even if it is a card to tell them they are in your thoughts. Peace!
