I think that all gifts are great. I mean, if you are going to think about it too hardly, then of course, you will never be able to enjoy it. I just think that people do not see it the way I see it. If you are given the gift of anything, then you better do something good with it. I feel like it is best if we just try to go out and be thankful for the gifts that we get.
