It's that time again, the holidays are upon us and mot of us are frantically trying to think of gifts for all those special people on our shopping lists.  of course we want gifts that fit our budget, so here's a unique list of gift suggestions for "the LARGE of heart, and small of purse."

These gifts won't cost you a dime, but that doesn't mean they have no value.  On the contrary, if you give one of these gifts, you will give the most priceless gift of all: yourself.

The Gift of Listening - Psychologists tell us that one of the greatest things we can do for one another is listen.
The Gift of Signs of Affection - Take the time to give your loved ones signs of affection.
The Gift of a Note - Write notes to your loved ones.  They can be as simple as "I love you" or as creative as a sonnet.
The Gift of Laughter - Everyone loves to laugh. Give those you love this gift. Just cut out a cartoon, clip a joke, copy a riddle or save a cleaver article.  Your gift will say "I love to laugh with you."
The Gift of a Game - Offer to play your loved one's favorite game with him or her.  Even if you lose, you'll be the winner.
The Gift of Doing a Favor - This gift is made more valuable when it anticipates a request rather than when it responds to one.
The Gift of a Compliment - It is great therapy for us all.
The Gift of a Cheerful Disposition - Your gift of cheerfulness will be a precious gift for everyone - including yourself.
The Gift of Prayer - Praying for Christ's special blessing on a loved one or friend is the greatest gift you can give this Christmas.

May you be blessed with the gift of health, happinenss and prosperity this Christmas season and the new year.
