If it’s love, then the gift should be…
I believe the best gift we can give someone close to us is their mental freedom.
There’s nothing more valuable to a person than mental freedom.
From a husband to a wife, from a wife to a husband,
From parents to children,
From children to parents,
From one friend to another —
the most precious gift we can give is mental freedom.
Many people lose their mental freedom — sometimes because of others, sometimes even because of themselves…
Even in the midst of countless problems, a single kind word of love can give someone their mental freedom.
But in order to give that gift, we first need to be willing to let that person have their mental freedom…
We need to want to see them happy…
Without that, we cannot offer the gift of mental freedom.
There’s no law that says every problem must be shared with the person involved…
So sometimes, you can choose not to burden your loved one with it — and that becomes a gift of mental freedom to them.
There’s no rule that says the person involved has to handle every task…
So sometimes, by relieving them of certain responsibilities, you’re giving them the gift of mental freedom.
There’s no rule that says one side must carry the full weight of life…
If we can carry a portion of that weight ourselves, that too is gifting mental freedom to the other.
That gift can be hidden in a lovingly offered cup of tea,
a gentle, kind touch,
a warm smile full of affection,
a blessing placed through a soft hand on the head,
or in a heartfelt invitation…
So,
May this pure gift be granted to everyone…
May we all meet those beautiful souls in life who gift us with that rare treasure called mental freedom.
