ALT-1 The Benefits of Giving an Experience as a Gift
An experience as a gift is a timeless treasure. An experience will be with the recipient their entire life. An experience is a custom fit. The benefits of giving an experience as a gift are two fold because the experience is well documented in the mind of the recipient and can also be documented in photographs and on film as well. An experience can be taking a child to their first concert or teaching them to swim for the very first time. Similar to a honey moon which will never be forgotten by the bride or groom. I wonder who was the genius that thought of that tradition as an experience?
An experience is often a cherished memory to last a life time. There isn't any shrinkage or fading of the memory. An experience remains vivid and lingers without fading away. Most children love to talk about their sweet sixteen birthday parties, well past their teenage years. Jewelry may be lost or thrown into a jewelry box and never worn again. An experience can be revisited in your mind at a moments thought, as it brings a smile to your face. How many memories do you have to cherish, long after the clothing is too small or has gone out of style?
Sharing an experience with someone you love isn't difficult to do. Perhaps, a husband and a wife can count on fulfilling their bucket list as an anniversary present to one another. Let's face it, we all get a bit confused on what year is paper and what year is diamond. A lot of planning and thought goes into an experience. An experience might even stimulate the romance.
We all know of people that give expensive gifts. So , what do you give the person who seems to have everything? That's easy, you give them an experience that they will never forget. Most people can count unforgettable experiences on one hand, but they might be able to count those coach hand bags on two hands. Unlike gifts, an experience can never be returned or exchanged for something better. An experience is what it is. An experience to last a life time. Our lives are built on our experiences both good and bad.
The very first trip to New York City was an experience that my daughter will never ever forget. A trip to a place like NYC, now who could ever forget that? Trips, concerts and birthday celebrations are among the unforgettable experiences shared with people you love.
Planning an experience should always take into account what the recipient likes. Does the recipient like the ocean? A cruise would be a splendid idea. Of course, the monetary cost of the experience must be factored into the planning. An experience can foster future traditions in a family or renew old relationships. The ramifications of an extraordinary experience are heart warming to say the least.
