I got some money on my birthday. My brother gave it to me. He said it was a birthday present. Yes, money is useful and good to have but is it a present?
When I got the envelope with money in, I did not feel happiness. It was good but it was not meaningful. What’s the purpose of giving a present? It is the way to show the one you care that I care of you. To give a proper present, you need to see the one’s interest, preferences, needs or etcetera. It takes time and efforts. That is why and how your present become meaningful. Giving money? Probably the easiest way for givers and receivers as well. I got 100$ on my birthday in January. I give you 100$ on your birthday in March. Is this fun?
Money does not have any mark. Whoever gives your money, it cannot last long. You spend it just as same as other money. It goes in your bank account without any label. The meaning of present fades away quickly. However I, if you get a meaningful present, it will last for a long time in your mind. Also the present can last in your house for a long time and that will remind you of the very day when you got the present. If you give money as a present, there is the only way to measure its worth. How much. Who gives me more money than others. Is not it sad?
Present should not be measured its worth in cash. Present is showing one’s mind towards someone. On your birthday, which one will make you be more excited and wonder, an unopened box with a ribbon, or a simple envelope that you can know what is in with a glance?
