I love the idea of giving hugs. a fellow giver J. Eric Murphy has a great video added to his blog about "free hugs" check it out.
I love the idea of non material gifts. This morning I gave the gift of listening to friends and deep breathing to myself. Thank you for the encouragement.
that's a great idea...did you know that hugs day is coming up soon too. It is on Feb 14...

and if you can't give someone a physical hugs you can always send them a hug day card.
Hi Stacy you just gave me a great nonmaterial giving. After doing my first 29 days I got lazy, and needed a boost to get back into the mode. So thank you for your email. This was a great giving!!!!!! Today I will start another 29 days. Connie
i totally agree with you Alan!
Spot on Alan.
Your comment reminded me of this quote;
People will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel.
-Maya Angelou
that is a marvelous quote and so true!
A great way to give is to find one new person on this site that you haven't read their blogs before. Then, read take the time to read through their blog page and make a thoughtful comment. I know that when I read what others write to me it means so much.
I second this idea! It's part of the power of this community.
I agree with that...i know it encourage me when i have someone to share what i did with and assure me that i'm heading in the right direction. Thanks Cheryl
For those so incline, I offer up prayers or offer to pray for someone who seems in need of it. Also, you be surprise how many people just to get a kind word now and then through out the day can be uplifting, I know, I love it when I get those. So those can be non-material. Great discussion idea here. Thanks

I like to let people out in traffic, and also see how many people I can get to smile back when walking at the grocery store or mall.
