The Christmas holidays is coming once again. This is the time of the year where gifts are flying from here to there and vice versa. I always have good memories of Christmas. I'm not a type who is delighted to receive gifts though I appreciate those who will give. I am more like the giver than the receiver.
Every year, I see to it that I give gifts to my family and my friends. Most of the time I give material gifts though I have also given people like the gifts of love and friendship haha.
I love those people who keep the gifts to its best form. I also love those who uses the gift I gave them, as it shows how useful it is for them. One of my friends, Dan, is also one of my favorite gift receiver. He knows how to appreciate things and knows how to use the gifts properly.
About three years ago, I gave him those brown shoes for Christmas. I just sent those shoes via courier mail because we're seas apart from each other.
Last time we went out, I noticed he's wearing the shoes I gave him. I'm so happy to see that after three long years, the shoes I gave him is still alive and do not look three years old at all.
I got a confession to make, *whispers*, those shoes costs only US$7. Yes, just $7.00 and yet they are still alive and still looking good.
Dan said he always use them at least twice or thrice a week so I'm quite amaze that a terribly cheap shoes would last that long! I can have shoes that cost hundreds of dollars but to have it last for 3 years will be a hard thing to achieve.
Anyway, this coming holidays, let's all give gifts to our love ones even in the smallest way. Why not give them their favorite shoes, eh?
No trackbacks.
