Picking The Perfect Christmas Gift

Christmas is such a wonderful time of year! With so many colored
lights, sparkling tinsel, and pretty packages, it seems as
though the world has magically transformed into a glittering
paradise. It's also a great time of year because everyone wants
to show the special people in their lives how much they are
appreciated.
But have you ever sat down to think about what gifts to get that
special someone in your life, and came up empty? Have you ever
asked yourself the question, "What should I get for this
person?" and realized that you really didn't know what would
make a good gift? It seems that every year I hear at least a
couple of people mention that they are in this quandary.
There are two basic principles that I use in choosing gifts, and
using these principles has always guaranteed a great gift.
The first principle is that I focus on what that person enjoys,
and what challenges they have been facing. If I know that my
special person enjoys going to movies as soon as they are
released, then I know that movie passes will make a great gift.
If my special person enjoys golf, then something related to that
sport will usually be most welcome.
By the same token, if I know that this person has been trying to
do something with meager tools, then a gift of a better (or more
specialized) tool will be the chosen gift. This doesn't have to
be an expensive tool, just the right one. Maybe they need a
basic set of handyman's tools, or maybe a glue gun for crafting.
Also on this same line of thinking would be the situation that
the person you're shopping for has trouble in the winter with
dry heated air. A humidifier (or even a vaporizer) would be
received with shouts of joy. Maybe they have trouble with
allergies in the summer. An indoor air purifier (many are less
than $50) could be the best gift you could give.
And if that special person in your life is just floating
aimlessly through life without a sense of direction or purpose,
the best gift could be the gift of motivation or wisdom. Books
are great gifts, especially if you know what the receiver is
trying to do with their life (or would like to do with their
life if they knew how). Along the same line are recordings,
self-development courses, and videos.
The other main principle that I use to choose great gifts is
psychic perception. If I just don't know enough about the person
I'm shopping for, and I really don't know what they want out of
life, I call upon my spiritual connection with all life (and
with that, my connection with that person) to do the choosing
for me.
Here's the reason this works. At a fundamental level, we are all
connected. Connected so closely that we are virtually the same
being living multiple lives. When we open ourselves to this
connection, there is a synchronicity that can be used in many
ways. For our purpose of choosing the perfect gift, this
connection will tell us when we have the right gift in mind for
the person we're shopping for.
And here's how to do it. The easiest way is to bring the image
of both the intended recipient and the intended gift into your
mind at the same time, after you've opened yourself to the
infinite spiritual connection. With the connection active, and
the images of both the gift and the receiver in mind, there will
either be a harmony between the images or they won't be. If a
harmony exists, the gift is the right one. If harmony isn't
there, the gift isn't right.
The harmony you're looking for is more than a simple "do they
seem okay for each other" kind of thing. It's more of "is there
a sense of electricity with this combination" kind of harmony.
If you get a sense of excitement when bringing the two together,
then you can count on the gift being well received.
Just make sure that you've developed a strong connection to
Spirit, or this technique won't always work. Without the
spiritual connection, any excitement you feel will only be your
own. You want the excitement to come from the person you're
shopping for, not from yourself.
