Question: Do you think it is better to give a gift or receive a gift? Why?(Write in complete sentences, use proper grammar, spelling and punctuation.)

I think it's better to give a gift than receive a gift. In life, the more you give and the more energy you put out, the more you'll receive in return. You can't always be so self-absorbed and obsessed with yourself and receiving gifts from other people.

Question: Do you think the cost of a gift matters? What makes a good gift. (Write in complete sentences, use proper grammar, spelling and punctuation.)

It's not the cost that counts, it's the thought behind the gift. You can give someone the greatest gift in the world but there's no monetary value to it because the gift came from the heart. A good gift is something that's thought out and you're not just getting it for someone for the hell of it, there's meaning to the actual present.
