The concept of giving gift is as old as human race. In order to express our love, respect, honor, we give gift to people. Sometimes you desire to catch somebody's attention so you shower on him / her gifts of all kinds. At other time, we give gift because it is customary to exchange gifts during festival like Christmas, Dusherra (Pooja), Eid, Deepawali, Birthdays and Anniversaries. Often we give a gift to a person just to tell that you have been missing him/ her. While giving a gift you have to take into consideration, the taste of the receiver, your taste and your pocket, because a gift speaks volume about you - your status, your intelligence and about your regard for the other person to whom you are giving the gift.

If you want to express your romantic feelings, do not go by the utility of the thing, it should reflect your feelings truly and vividly. Value of the gift is not as important, your choice should reflect your emotions. It may be a beautifully embroidered stole or a scarf or a silk tie which would ideally suit him/her. Remember the receiver sees the feelings behind the gift and not the price fag. So you can choose a gorgeous necklace of multi colors beads which may go well with her dress or an intricately embroidered clutch bag in striking color which goes well with any dress and will catches eyes of many people at a party.

If you want to pay respect to anybody whom you really hold in great esteem, give something like a wall painting which will remind him of your regard for him. Believe it you have made a lifelong friend, howsoever old he or she is. It is the right choice of the gift which matters most. It you honor a man and want to show your feelings better ask for his photograph and hand sketched in pencil, he/she will love it and preserve it for life.

So my friend, giving gift is an art which needs to perfected with time, experience in life. Have you even received a gift you do not know where to keep or what to do with it. The only option remains before you is to gift it to somebody else and get rid of it. We want the receiver to treasure it as a keepsake, so choose well, according to the age and taste of the person receiving it. One always feels better to give a gift to come one whom we desire to impress, whose love and understanding we want.

Then why not choose well so that your feelings and gifts are not wasted. Experience the joy of giving a gift and let others experience the joy of receiving it.
