Giving gifts has always been used as a way of conveying love. We do it at Christmas, birthdays & weddings. We fulfill needs and we give small pleasures. We make people happy when we give gifts. Everyone likes to receive gifts, but if you find yourself riding high for days because your husband brought you home a bouquet of flowers or your friend dropped by with a tin of home made cookies, then chances are you are a Gifts Person.

Gifts People love to give gifts too. My mom loves to buy me things. She says it's just a way to show me how much she loves me. She often gets upset when her birthday or Mother's Day go by and my dad or someone else didn’t get her anything, especially something that fits her tastes and personality.

It is not that Gifts People are greedy and want a lot of things. Gifts People like the idea that someone thought enough of them to get them something - anything. A handful of dandelions, pizza for dinner or calling in sick so you can spend time together, these are all treasured by a Gifts Person.

In times of crisis or hardship, your time could be the most valuable gift. Things like offering to baby-sit for someone when something unexpected happens or silently sitting with a person when a loved one has passed away are both good examples. This type of gift can be the sweetest thing a Gifts Person has ever known.

When little or big tokens are few and far between, Gifts People don’t feel loved. You don’t have to break the bank to keep a Gifts Person feeling loved. Be creative. A unique vase from a yard sale to match new wallpaper, a silly scarf that will go with a treasured jacket from a thrift stores, wild flowers from your drive home or a favorite candy bar from Wal-Mart all say that you were thinking about your Gifts Person. And you love them very much.
