"We all enjoy giving and receiving presents.
But there is a difference between presents and gifts.
The true gifts may be part of ourselves—
giving of the riches of the heart and mind—
and therefore more enduring and of far greater worth
than presents bought at the store."
~James E. Faust~
I don't know...I really really like those store bought presents.
