The Burden of a Gift

December 23, 2011 by demitinay

Well, ‘tis the season to be jolly. And yep, it is the season for giving—though I confess, it seems like I’m on the receiving end here. This whole week, I’ve been receiving gifts from various people at work and quite frankly, I’m feeling a little pressured. I know what you’re thinking; that I’m just a little too paranoid and that their gifts don’t mean I have to send one back. But I can’t help it. I’m having this feeling like I need to give back.

In fairness to me, I do want to give back. But I’ve never given gifts before (not counting exchange gifts). I don’t give gifts not because I don’t want to. Sometimes I do want to give gifts but I always have a problem with the choosing part. And I’m always afraid that my gift won’t be appreciated. And because I’m too concerned with my gift, I end up not giving any. But this year, I really want to give gifts. I hope I will be able to give this year. Wish me luck!
