I have had numerous presents and blessings received, not just during Christmas, but on all the events I have celebrated my entire life. Much as I try to recollect every single item that I have been given so I may choose which one would stand out among the rest, I can't.
When it comes to material things I have been fortunate enough to be one of those people who manage to get what they wish for. Don't get me wrong. I am not from a well off family. It's just that I'm lucky to get that Lego set I've been dying to have back in second grade, or that missing issue of the Tagalized X-Men comic book, or my first Gameboy, discman, pager and eventually my own 5210.
However, at the end of the day the Lego pieces will get lost one block at a time, the comic books will eventually lose its mint quality, and all the gadgets will be declared obsolete after a month or so. Nevertheless, I shall remain thankful to have received such items, and be more appreciative of the people responsible for it.
My gratitude doesn't end when these things get lost, or break beyond repair, or cease its functionality. Believe it or not, it's the thought that matters, always. No other gift jumps out as significant next to thoughtfulness.
