Holiday Season

Yes, Halloween is still a few days away, but if you’ve been to the stores lately, you’ll realize from the holiday music, holiday candies and cookies, and toys (so many toys), the holiday season is upon us.

So what to get others this year?

The best gift you can give a loved one, a friend or colleague during the holiday season is a handwritten note thanking them for all they have done for you and for the positive impact they have had on others.  I've given away most every gift I've ever been given - books, appliances, clothes, electronics - but I have kept the handwritten notes.  Those take time, thought, effort, love and appreciation - those stay with you months, years and even decades after you receive them.
