subject: My Best Thanksgiving Gift [print this page] Gone were days when Thanksgiving Day was a time to express people's gratitude to the god. Nowadays, Thanksgiving is time for us to give our thanks to our dear friends, our family members or even a stranger. However, the question about the gifts be sent to express our gratitude can be quite annoying. So what is the best thanksgiving gift?
Sending a card can be the first answer that pops into your mind. Admittedly, there are various cards to choose, each with different designs. For example, some are painted with lovely flowers; some with fabulous covers and beautiful words; others can even sing songs when you open it. This accounts for its popularity in the past decades. The fact is that sending a card is more like a clich and without any surprise. What is more, many persons today tend to dislike such acts as sending gifts for the sack of the environmental protection.
Then you may tend to think about sending flowers as the thanksgiving gifts. It is said that the lovely flowers are irresistible for anyone. However, we have to take other things into consideration. That is due to the fact that some people maybe be allergic to the pollen, sending flowers may cause some unnecessary troubles.
In my opinion, the best thanksgiving gift is to spend more time with your family members and help to improve their health conditions. Maybe you can get up earlier and do some morning exercises with your family members. In this way, you can enjoy the fresh air and the quite city in the dawn with your family member, which may help you to feel close with them. And you can also do some sports with your family members, such as hockey or football. The reason for my recommendation for such sports lies in the fact that all of them call for cooperation among the players. In other words, such sports help to strengthen the cooperation and strength among the family members. Admittedly, doing sports can be en excellent way to achieve better communication and to have fun. Another recommendation for the thanksgiving gift is climbing. On one hand, climbing helps build up the health especially by improving the heart performance. On the other hand, climbing offers a lot of time for you to chat with each other. You can share your happiness and achievement with your family members when you are climbing, which can make you feel closer.
