Unadulterated Joy
Aug 28, 2009
Never underestimate the power of an inexpensive, surprise gift to delight your beloved. Which delight spills in return back to you, for simply knowing him, surprising him, thrilling him.
It's not just the present, which was a hoped-for, long-sought-after thing of minimal cost; it was the act of giving that thing, of recognizing, acknowledging, and fulfilling the desires of another's heart, however simple that desire might seem.
The giver is blessed because the gifted is overjoyed.
It's a good recipe for lifelong happiness, actually.
