  So..., what's the best gift you've received today?  People get different gifts from different people on their special days. Birthday, graduation day, wedding, promotion, award, anniversary, name them.   Gift giving has assumed an accepted norm in our society and the crave inexaustible.  Gifts helps to create, build and maintain relationships. They are used to cement or promote actions. It attracts favour and ultimately open doors. Gifts demonstrate love and affection towards an object, a person, or an interest. It registers the name of the giver in the heart of the receiver. Gifts are statements written beyond words. The giver better examine his motive before giving them. A gift whose intention is not immediately apparent can easily be misinterpreted. For example, a simple gift from a young man whose reason is not clear could be misunderstood by a lady as an attempt to woo her. A gift from an officer might be viewed as a bride to obtain a preferential treatment over others.
