The greatest gift…
Welcome back!

What is the greatest gift? We all know about the Oprah’s big gift. What an uplifting and life changing show. That show inspired me to ask the question of “what is the greatest gift?”
As we are approaching Thanksgiving; the season of thanking. I wonder “what you have to give gratitude for?” “What GIFT you were given that you are most thankful for?” Around the coroner from Thanksgiving, comes the holiday of Christmas. The season of gifts, the time when we all think about what gift we can give to our love ones. “What gift will you give?
The questions I have are “Is the greatest gift, a gift we were given?” Or “Is the greatest gift, a gift we give to others?” The answer is completely difference to each individual, even within one family. A local family that I know of, is a military family. The wife and their three children are home here in Camp Pendleton, California. The husband is out on a 13 months mission, he’s been over sea since last February. I know what she would say to the question “What is the greatest gift?” For her it would be the gift of having her husband back and home safe. As for him although he wants to be back home with his family as badly as his wife wants him to. The question “What is the greatest gift?” For him it is giving his service in order to protect freedom.
As for me “What is the greatest gift?” Used to be all the blessing I received, all the angles that ever come my way, all the challenges that I ever encounter etc… A long list of Gratitude. Today the meaning of “What is the greatest gift?” Had became my service with my message. To spread the philosophy of Imperfect Action is better than No Action! To teach, and coach people with that philosophy, in doing so it will emprower others to take action to improve their lives and capture their dreams. What is your meaning of the Greatest Gift?

What is the greatest gift? Well I think you nailed it!
I’ve recently come to believe that one of the great secrets in life is to give more than you take. This creates a reciprocal value in the universe which in turn creates more opportunity for blessings to be bestowed on all of us.
You can’t make a fire without some sort of fuel - and blessing work the same way. If we as a culture and society stop feeding the universe with our good deeds and blessings then the well will dry up. It’s especially important to remember that during these tricky times.
Not sure if I answered your question, but that’s my answer
Dear Dave
You are so right. To give more than we take. The universe is like a ATM- you have to make deposit frist before you can make withdraw.
Thanks for your comment, welcome back.

Our Greatest Gift is to give oneself. The unselfish act of Giving Oneself makes this world a Beautiful place to live. A world filled with Happiness and Gratitude.
Giving makes you feel good. Giving makes the receiver feel good. The “feeling good” makes others around you feel good. And that same “feel good” feeling, influences us to create more ways to feel good about, by Giving more. Isn’t it wonderful to know, the moment you gave something of yourself caused an amazing chain reaction that is impacting the rest of the world? We find it so fascinating that a single person can single-handedly make a better world by simply Giving.
You, Giovanna, have been blessed with the gift to inspire others. You’ve done just that for us. And the gift you are giving us and everyone else you inspire to Take Imperfect Action is the greatest gift we could all receive.
Thank you so much for being you.
Many Blessings….Roxanne and Hugo
