THE ULTIMATE GIFT CONTD

GIFT OF GRATITUDE; gratitude means being grateful and i once heard a saying that said “ONLY GREAT FOOLS ARE UNGRATEFUL” some people keep complaining that they don’t get, you can never get anything from anybody if you are not a grateful person, gratitude is very important, and in other to be able to practice this we have to learn the magic of saying THANK YOU, some people feel too big to say this, then they are too big to have anything. Grateful people always have a lot of people around them because of this gift of gratitude.
GIFT OF PROBLEMS; I call problems, challenges, at times all you need is a challenge that you eventually overcome for you to realise the strength you have within, problems or challenges at times are stepping stones to move on to the next level, a lot of times we don’t know how much we have inside of us until we face a challenge and overcome it, then we can begin to see the potentials we have inside of us. Let me tell you the truth if you are not ready to face challenges you are not ready to go the next level of your life, get it now, that challenge is the step to the next level can’t you see that’s a gift? It is.
GIFT OF LEARNING; learning is a gift and you need to learn the act of learning , it’s essential, you can’t learn you can’t grow, as outlined in the point above, you need to be able to learn from the experiences you’ve been through. LEARN, LEARN AND LEARN and when you do, trust me you will know it’s a gift.
GIFT OF THE DAY; A lot of people play away their day, every day you have is an opportunity to do something, do something new, a new day is another day to do something better than you did yesterday, really yesterday is gone, tomorrow is farfetched but what you have now is today, why not use your today wisely, make up your mind not to play away your today, it’s a gift.
GIFT OF LOVE; Love is the greatest, it can conquer, it can strengthen, it has power, the gift of love is the most potent, when you have love, you have life, love and be loved; it’s the greatest of all gifts.

THE ULTIMATE GIFT

I watched a movie (an American film) today titled “THE ULTIMATE GIFT”, it’s a film you should see, it taught me a lot of things, and i would like to share the lessons i learnt, although i still insist you should watch the movie. It’s the story of a grandfather who gave his grandson what he called the ultimate gift and in other for the young man to get this ultimate gift, he had to first learn to have the following gifts, which would eventually make him get the ultimate gift, and these gifts are thus;
GIFT OF WORK; work is an important part of life, it’s something every human should have, the gift of work makes you a focus person, no matter how big anybody might be or want to be, you have to work for somebody or something.
GIFT OF MONEY; money is good, like we all say money answereth all things, money can buy you the beautiful things of life, but we need to understand that it's a gift, it's not a do or die affair, that’s why we should endeavor to go about the right way to get the gift of money.
GIFT OF FRIENDSHIP; this is very important, friendship is essential in life, we need people we can lean on, people that can be there when we need somebody, but we must choose carefully who our friends should be, some people are our friends because of what they can get from us, some people are parasites in our life, we must try everything possible to rid ourselves of this kind of people. When you have real friends you will truly understand that friendship is a gift.
GIFT OF FAMILY; a lot of people have family members who are not worth it, in the sense that we can’t count on them, not all families are bonded, that's why a lot of people look for love outside their home, i have come to understand that we have our part to play too when it comes to family building, do your part in establishing the bond of your family, your family is very important, if you truly have a family you can count on, then you can enjoy the gift of family.
GIFT OF GIVING; we all have to learn the act of giving, giving is powerful, it’s the tool of the rich, look or study the richest men on earth, they are men who love to give, if you can’t give you simply can’t take, giving is a very essential gift in life, have you heard the saying, “GIVERS NEVER LACK” so why not learn the act of giving, it’s very essential, the most surprising thing about giving is, i have never heard of anyone that gave so much till he became poor, no matter how much you give you can never lack, truly giving is a gift.
