Everyone loves gifts. Some gifts are special. some are ordinary .what gift am I talking about ??
As I woke up from sleep , I saw my mother sitting beside me on my bed. I know what will happen..But I ought to act innocent.ITS MY BIRTHDAY. My parents wished me..Gave their blessings.
Now..The best part of a birthday to any kid : THE GIFTS!!!! The first one is from my mother , hand knitted sweater she was working on from weeks.And I loved it. My father bought me the latest video game I wanted to play since months..I thanked them with a kiss..And then comes other gifts like a diary , my favourite avenger wallsticker , an expensive school bag and cute , unique stationary
That evening , we went out for dinner. On the way back, I saw a mother and a kid holding each other tight in the cold . The small boy , probably younger than me is staring at my stuffed teddy bear..I felt he loved it. I am not willing to give it since its my favourite toy (Imagine how special it is if I had taken it with me to the restaurant )
My mother observed us.and asked me if I wanted to give it to him. I kept on telling myself ' No..I love this .I dont want to give it.""I repeated ..it several times. And then I remembered his face.After a few steps I ran back to him and gave the teddy to him. He smiled at me . I felt happy. Very happy. Happier than when I received those gifts from my parents.
Thats when I understood The best gift is a smile. A gift that can be given to others. A gift you can give yourselves..A gift irreplacaeble !!! SMILE 🤓
