The Pressure of Their World (for Introverts)
Faith Burgess is a bright and charming stay-at-home mom. She has a toddler, Joshua. Faith is an introvert and so is her three year old son. I asked Faith to try and put into words what it was like to be an introvert so I could help get the idea across to my readers. This is the story she told me.My husband has an uncle who is clearly an introvert.
I've heard him called "quirky", "cold and humorless", "reclusive" and "a strange bird". He married into our very large family and has been dragged to every family gathering for nearly 50 years ? always sitting off by himself reading a book or watching TV ? never talking to anyone while everybody else socializes, eats and plays games.Last year, I drew his name for the Christmas gift exchange and was stymied about what he'd like. The family members who had all drawn his name in previous years laughed pityingly. They informed me that he wants the same thing every year, white undershirts and gray dress-shirts. I got him the nicest ones I...

Can Get Well Gifts By Mail Help Spur A Speedy Recovery?
(ContentDesk) March 31, 2006 -- There are inevitable situations in life that
must be faced regarding a friend or relative suffering from an illness or recovering from an accident that has caused bodily harm.
There are two choices on how to act. A person can elect to stand-by idly and let life decide the outcome. The other option is for someone to take a stand of offering sincere support on behalf of the stricken ally in this thing called life.
A decision for the latter would prove a level of selflessness in a selfish world.
It would show that a bounty of kindness is willing to be shared with our less fortunate brothers and sisters. Our attention to the healing aspect of life can be expressed through the powerful spiritual tools of prayer and companionship. The predicament can also be attended to by the strategy of giving a solid, three-dimensional gift representing our concern for their well-being. How can the second option be accomplished especially...

Friendship- Do You Value?
Friendship is a gift of God. Some of us are blessed with good friends. But as it happens, these friendships are taken for granted in some cases and not valued. It is similar to a case of two couples. Say one has no child even after many years of marriage and the other has many children, more than they can manage.
What do you think? Will the couple with many children value the children as much as the couple which has none? Everything is relative in life. We value what we don't have and give less value to what is freely available with us. Friendship is one such relationship. Please view some friendship screensavers and friendship wallpapers and then let us continue with our discussion. Why should we value friendships? What qualities doe a good friend bring in our relationship that makes the friendship so valuable?...

Traditional VS Modern Anniversary Gifts
Most people are familiar with the traditional materials list that good etiquette requires us use as a guide when selecting a gift to commemorate a wedding anniversary. If you are like most people, you might find it a bit challenging to convert the materials on the list into an acceptable gift idea. There may be more choices available to you than you realize. Do you know that an updated "modern" gift list is available which is becoming more and more popular? This article touches on the history of the traditional, highlights the differences between the modern and traditional lists, and helps you decide which is right for you.Parts of the traditional list have existed since medieval times. Historians can trace the origins of silver and golden anniversaries to medieval Germany, where garlands made of these metals were presented as gifts for the 25th and 50th years of marriage.
The rest of the list may not be as traditional as you think. I was surprised to learn that the traditional...

Fleeting Gifts
During a recent visit to a toy store looking for the perfect gift for a child, the insight I received gave me a very rude awakening. A child is born with all kinds of gifts tucked right in there with the cute little smile and the tiny toes and fingers. There is creativity, inspiration, imagination, and fun. It is all right there - just waiting to be encouraged, and allowed to grow and mature. What really happens when family and friends lavish gifts of the latest toy trends and gift ideas that toy manufacturers insist are the "in" thing? These precious and fleeting gifts are not nurtured and give the "food" they need to become the basis for future careers, jobs, and lifestyles.
Instead, they allow the child to be a bystander and "watch the world go by" - but not become a "mover and shaker" of what is going on. In other words, the script, cast, and everything in between has been scheduled, programmed, and packed - all in one box. Children are the future of each and every one of...
