Yesterday while searching for gift ideas for my friend I stumbled on a comment left by one of the readers (Jacinta O’Halloran ) that started simply:

“As I pulled the slender box from under the tree, my mind raced with possibilities. Ripping the paper away, I found a small box of coloring pencils. “Huh?” The attached note read “you fill my life with color, now go fill yours,” and it included a certificate to a local art class, something I’d been feeling too busy to sign up for myself. I burst into tears.”

I read it and almost felt like crying myself.
What a beautiful gift!

This story made me think of all the wonderful presents that I have received over the years and of those few that will stay in my heart forever.

I am sure that at some point, you too, have received a perfect gift that you will never forget.
