This writing prompt had me thinking this morning. More so than any physical gift, two things came to mind.

The first one being the gift of an activity or quality time spent together. Some of the best gifts my husband has given me has been concert tickets, or an appointment for a massage. While these types of things do cost money, the underlying sentiment of giving me time for myself or an activity I love to do (but rarely allow myself to do for various reasons) is meaningful.

On a more sentimental note, the greatest daily gift anyone can give me is love and support. Especially in this past year, the love and support given to me by family and friends has been insurmountable. I think it is truly the gift that keeps on giving. I always try to be there for my family and friends, and they give it back in return. This is a mentality gifted to me by my parents, and something I hope to pass along to my son.

If you are reading this, take the time to reach out to a loved one. Check in on your friends. They may need the love and support more than you know.
