Gift

Hot 6853 views. 2016-12-3 16:54

There are some days that I really dislike during a year, my friends' or whose birthdays. I don't mean that I don't want to celebrate for them, but it's just too difficult to choose a perfect birthday gift. 
I could remember when I began to give my friends birthday gifts. But when we were children, we only sent each other a card made by ourselves and wrote or drew something on it. It was very simple, but we were still very happy to receive such a card. And I still got many of them in my drawer. However, when I was 12, I received my first birthday gift from my friend Meng. I was so happy and surprised. And wishing to make my friend happy, I also gave her a gift in her birthday. But what I didn't expect was that one of my friends was angry with me because I didn't give her a gift while I gave Meng one. So henceforth, I began to give every friend a birthday gift because I was afraid they would be unhappy. 
Maybe I could say that as we grow up, what we want is no longer just a handmade card. If you send a card to your friends as a birthday gift, of course she will be happy to get your blessing, but after compared with the gifts other people give her, she may be a little disappointed. I don't mean everybody cares about gifts, but many do. 
Giving a gift becomes a way to maintain a relationship instead of just a celebration. When I receive a birthday gift, what I think about is not just happiness, I would think that how much is the gift and what should I give my friend when her birthday comes.

I like celebrating others' birthday by giving them pretty cards. Also, I will give them gifts which they like. I always ask them what they want.

In my mind, if a friend really cares about the gift you gave him or her too much, it's obvious you both are not really close friends. But maybe it's much better to give your friends the equal valuable gifts.

I think gift should fit one's mind. If u give sb. a present that he or she wants for a long time, ur friend must be very surprised and happy, which is a present's meaning.

as far as i am concerned,  birthday gifts stand for a kind of treasure. most time, what really counts is the friendship and love, which is quite priceless.

You are right. The people I talk about are just my ordinary friends. But friendship is very important for me,  I don't want to lose them, even ordinary friends.

Agree. Friendship is the most important thing. But receiving a delightful gift always make you feel good and feel that the person are caring about you, isn't it?

Yes. Everyone want a gift they like. If you give something to someone but they don't really like, they  will feel disappointed.
