Ordinary Question to Determine Best Gift
Giving a gift to someone special is somewhat complicated. It is not because we don’t want to. It is because we don’t want our dearest person to get disappointed with something that we give. Surely we need to do a research to find out what he/she wants. But we cannot make it obvious since we want to surprise our lovely person.
We can do the research in secret such as ask his/her best friends or families. If we are too shy to ask somebody, then we should just ask the related person directly. Of course we will not use direct question such as “what do you want for present?” We will ask him/her with a little bit tricky questions such as “what are you doing right now?” or “how is the weather?” or “how is the work?” Well, actually we just ask him/her random and ordinary questions, but by his/her answers, we can make a conclusion about what he/she feels and about the situation around him/her. Then, from the conclusion, we can determine what kind of present is the best one for him/her.
But the truth is the best gift is not always precious thing which we can get from the store. If he/she has been trough a hard day, the best gift for him/her is our presence, our availability and our will to stay beside him/her.
