The Gift of Giving

Thanks to Joon for giving me a link to 100 inspiration quotes, even though he misinterpreted my initial desires xD

Anyway, I began browsing through these quotes and found one interesting one:

"Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more." –H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

I find this so applicable to my life. Honestly, nothing makes me more happy then just lifting someone's day. Whether it's through a small gift (like baked brownies, I'm looking at you Joan) or just an encouraging message, I love seeing people smile. And honestly, I don't give a damn if I don't get anything (unless I ask for it...). I just want someone there to find a way to make me smile.

So challenge of the day: find a way to make others smile, because it's one of the few gifts that keeps on giving.
