A different way to give this year

The end of December and the beginning of a new year are celebrated in different ways around the world.

And a common theme is giving. People give presents, large or small. Do you?

Here’s a thought…

Give some of your time instead. You could be of service, be with someone for company, or do something together.

And here’s a tip…

When you are with them, be with them. Be present in the moment, not thinking of other things somewhere else.

When someone is really present with you, how does that feel?

Great huh!

So, give your presence as a gift.

From all of us at People Alchemy, have a wonderful festive season and a great start to 2024.
