Apple Ipod for my sister in law as a christmas gift this morning, thousands of children will certainly die, dead as worthless doornails, in third world countries and probably here in the west to. 7 months ago Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's easily justified... quite simply our society is selfish, self centred and couldn't give a toss about anyone other than themselves. Even the giving has become a selfish act in some cases.. don't want others thinking ill of you in any way, better make it look like you're doing well and care etc. The whole things a load of bollocks if you ask me. Instead of giving a gift, I reckon we should ask each other for a dance. Share a dance with your sister in law, your granny, your neice etc.. Lots of giggles and two people share more togetherness & memories in dancing together than any gift. Think about it.. you remember it when you danced with someone no matter what the situation. |
