Gifts - My XI - B CMS Chowk Essay - checked by our S.Bhatnagar ma'am

Gift is given to someone by somebody as a sign of his friendship or gratitude to him.Gifts are presents which strengthen the bonds of relations.Gifts are a good way to show our love for our friends and relatives.Gifts are also used as makeup for quarrels.The custom of giving or taking gifts is as old as the history of man's civilization.Man has been taking and giving gifts for many years,i.e. gifts given to kings and Queens by their subjects,poets.dancers and craftsmen getting gifts from kings.In today's times gifts are given and taken in almost every phase of life.

Gifts are the best way to reconcile.to show our love for others and are a token of remembrance. A person who receives gifts must think himself lucky.The object of giving gifts is to give pleasure.The gifts evoke the memories of the persons who had given them.Gifts are in themselves a language more expressive than could be words and quick to stir up associations.

The gifts received must never be sold,though some gifts can be re-gifted by our own discretion.Most of them are kept as mementos.We should understand the value of a gift.Not every one in this world get gifts,so those who get them must keep them as precious pearls of nostalgia inducers.Gifts are not precious based on their monetary value but by the feelings of the person who gives them.Later on in our life when we glance at these gifts,we become so sentimental remembering the emotions of the person who gave them,and the memories associated with that person floods our mind and brim out in tears,most of these persons who may be friends or relatives or lovers may no longer be with us but their memories are freshened in our minds by these gifts.We remember the circumstances in which they were given then the memories old days are freshened in our mind.

Just as voice is endowed to Humans so that he can pour out emotions of his heart,in the same way gifts are a beautiful way to show your love for other persons.

So it can be concluded that gifts are friendship's symbol.
