Holidays are arriving to Uruguay, and all over the world, and eveyone is thinking what to give to their beloved ones. I believe that these are times when we should stop and think, not in what we want to give, but in what others what to recieve.
Leaving aside the material and physical gifts, they want to recieve our love and care. Therefore, what would be better than making something by ourselves? It is said that when we do this, the present we give adquires much more value to who we give it. In addition, we will highlight as the person who took the job to make something for them.
There was a study carried out in Uruguay and the figures show that 94% of uruguayans feel good when they make a present. Moreover, 76% of the interwied ones state that when they recieve something which was made for them they feel happy and special. If we think, this is what we want to achieve. We want that the other person feels like they are someone important to us and that they deserve something made by us. Not only it shows that we care for them, but also that we pay attention to them; something that in this rat race world becomes difficult.
To sum up, everyones loves to recieve presents, but the ones which makes us feel better and loved are the ones that were thought for us, those presents where we can see a loving person who knows us and tryed that we had something special. So, this is a good day to start making your own presents!
