We have recently watched The Ultimate Gift. It is about this teenage boy called Jason who's grandfather has died. In his grandfathers will, Jason has to go through a series of tasks. He is rewarded when he completes the tasks. The gifts start small but as he goes through more tasks, the gifts become bigger. In the end, these gifts up lead up to the ultimate gift. These are the gifts he gets while he works and after he works.
1) the gift of work (he must learn to work for his money) 2) the gift of money (he must learn to handle his money wisely) 3) the gift of love (he must learn to love unconditionally) 4) the gift of friends (he must find friends who accept him without his money) 5) the gift of laughter (he must learn to see the joys of life) 6) the gift of giving (must learn to be generous, especially with money) 7) the gift of family (he must spend time with family) 8) the gift of problems (he must learn to face and solve problems for himself) 9) the gift of learning (he must learn to learn, he doesn't know everything) 10) the gift of dreams (he must have dreams, dreams for his life) 11) the gift of gratitude (he must learn to be thankful for what he has) 12) the gift of a day (What would you do with your last day on Earth)
The gift that matters to me the most is the gift of gratitude. I'm starting to think about people who have nothing and I'm only just starting to truly appreciate everything I've got. I'm starting to realize how much I have, and I am really trying to appreciate what I've got. The list of my blessings are an unlimited piece of paper that can't be filled. It can only be aprriciated.
