An honor, responsibility, job, money, or a shout out?
Or…
Some type of symbol that will withstand the test of time?
My vote is for the latter.
What might those types of symbols be?
Spending time with someone.
Writing a letter (by hand).
Giving a great book.
Anything… that is simple, elegant, and will hold its meaning 30 years laters.
Are these gifts always possible? Maybe, maybe not; but, that’s what makes them powerful when they’re received.
