GIFTING

What it is to gift. The concept is a beautiful one, the act of giving something to another without the expectation of a gift in return.
A one way act that leaves both parties satisfied (most of the time).

For me personally i would like to choose the gift of happiness.

Since everyone on this planet wants to be happy in one form or another. Happiness can be seen as the ultimate goal of life, that one would spend a lot of years of ones life to study/work to be able to do what pleases one the most. In other words something that satisfies someone is actually making them happy.

This link is about how one becomes happy.

On the other hand this link is the christian view of how one becomes happy.

They are quite contradicting and depending on ones religious views one would agree to one or the other.
