People always expect gifts from others. But, how many of them would accept the gifts if they are second hand ones. We have all learnt from our child hood days that we are something great and we always deserve the best. How many of us have dared to buy second hand things even when you had enough money to buy the first hand. There are people in this world who can't even afford a first hand thing. I would recommend you to take a risk this time to gift your dear ones with second hand things. If you had planned to buy a book as gift, try to get a used copy and gift the same. You know it has many advantages. One can save a lot of money is the first thing. Secondly, that money can be used for some other useful purpose. People also realise the necessity of reusing things. None of us might have ever gone inside the home of a poor classmate of ours. There were instances in their lives when their studies required every penny earned by their parents. In this tough time, the greatest blessing one can get is somebody offering atleast a used book for His studies. Another side to this is that, a lot of things that we have bought remains idle in our homes and finally one day we will dump them all the junkyard. Un shared knowledge is a great Sin. Let us take a moment to make a list of books which we are not going to use ever more and make it a point to share it with those in need.
If somebody is not able to find a person in need, just close your eyes and imagine the feeling you had when you had when you were given something which you really wanted for sometime in your life. Let us Gift each other second hand things.
