The gift of time.

Straight to the point. The greatest gift you can ever give someone is your time. Time can add the essence to any thing, whether it would be a simple gift between friends or a dinner with your special companion. The main factor that makes any gift or any thing for that matter, worthwhile is time. Often taken for granted, what we do give with our time can never be taken back.

Time can be given in many forms, whether it be spending time with the person, chatting to them, comforting them or it can even be simply taking the time to look for a gift about what they like and so forth. Allowing the other person to realise the time you've spent on them only makes it that much better. Because sure its easy to get something expensive for your friend, but if you didn't put any heart into it, thats all it will ever be a materialist item with a price tag. Time can make what would be considered a "cheap" item to be the most valuable gift they would receive.

Another example would be organising an outing with a friend, and there are to options. You could either take the easy option and go to Mc Donalds, or spend the time to find out what they like. And its obvious which would mean more.

These are just two of the many examples of how time can add that something special to anything we do or give to others. We all live in it, bound by it and often wish we had more of it. And you all know the saying "Spend wisely" and what better not to spend your time on those your truly care about.
