Parting Gifts

That is such a sweet gesture. I bet your family and friends loved their personalized gifts and would really take good care of them when you're away. It seems that you're going to be gone out of the country for a while. Is that some sort of vacation or is it work related? As far as parting gifts are concerned, it's the other way around. I usually get the parting gifts from friends who have to move away and have to be gone for months or would be seldom visiting me when they get the time. I've gotten bags, clothes, accessories and other stuff from them. The only thing that comes on my mind was that one time when one of my cousins admired one of my earrings. And without any doubt, I just gave it to her because I haven't seen her in years and might not be seeing her again for more years. She's very dear to me since we've had fond memories when I was younger. As for your trip, I hope you'd have a great time wherever you might be going and I hope you'd still keep in touch with your friends here in Mylot. I'm pretty sure you're going to have a lot more stories to share to us, more topics we can discuss.

Well, hope you will be happy journey for your voyage..i give you my best wishes to you and your family.

i wonder what gift you'll give me goddess...

Hi toni The selfish friend in me says - you should not leave as if you go, you will be away from MyLot and I have many friends on my list who have gone away from me... But, then, I hava a better friend in me too, who says and wishes you Good Luck, Good Health, and A Safe journey. The good friend also asks what about the family when you are away? And what about the turn-about of things in case you get a permanent stay thing at the new place? Well too many questions that this good friend has... but somewhere deep within he knows you have planned everything out for good of all. I have only gifted once as a parting gift to a close friend when she got married. It was a necklace that she always wanted to have. We had been great friends at work during the 5 years of our college(we were more into charity, community workshops and such stuffs instead of studies) and today she is in a different country working for UNICEF.

I have never given anything as a parting gift to anyone.But I remember asking my boyfriend then the last shirt he wore. I asked him that coz I knew that it was the last time that I was going to see him. There were problems in our relationship and I knew that it was bound to end soon.

Hello, How sad to see you going, but i'm sure you'll still be in myLot. anyways, is this a petition matters or work related? Parting gifts, were very common these days, for a remembrance of your friendship and companionship. But in today's generation... with internet and all those online stuff... those assorted high tech gadgets that are around, it seems you are just going next door. It's just so easy to get you connected. Me, I never have given any parting gifts to anyone, but if I will be given the chance? I might be sharing my email add. hehehe . . .

During my first left the country I don't enough things to be given to my family and friends but now my second time, I think most of it I will give to them. Most of my favorite perfume that I bought in Saudi, all of them they took already. Not problem for me. I will buy again soon when I arrive in Qatar.

i left my homeland years ago for cebu but i could not remember where my things been when i left them. i cannot remember giving away things... you'll be leaving the country but i am sure, you will not forget us here. you could always visit us here when you are already there.

ARe you leaving the country alone Toni? So, how come it could be temporary or permanent?

hi, for me its not my attitude or habit to give any parting gifts to anybody because i will come back too,but if i will never come back anymore i will give those gadgets that i have that i can not use or will never use in the place where i go,or maybe clothes and pants the things that i could give too to my relative and family.

Well, despite my ripe old age of 37 years, I have not had the opportunity in my life, to get away from home, if only for a few days of vacation. Of course, when this happens, I have to say that I feel very miss my family, so that in this respect I wrote myself a question, calling me a mama's boy! Now you're talking about gift to make to the family. Because at the moment as I have already said, my being away from home has always ended in a few days, I thought it was not even necessary, to give my loved ones a goodbye gift! (at least for the moment)

I received a nice and trendy Kenneth Cole watch from my Dad last year when she left for the U.S. It was a surprise gift just for me. It simply remind how valuable time is. Show our love to everyone while we still can. I love watches and therefore one for the books

Oh, I'm happy and sad to know about your message.Happy because I believe that you will go to a place where you can find a better future (I don't mean that you don't have a better future here, it just that there is what we called greener pasture) I'm sad because you will be living your family and friends for a long or short time but I guess it's more than a month. Your husband,son, friends and nanny are lucky because I think you are a giver kind of a person. God bless you more! I never give a parting gifts for I never experienced that but I do always give some of my things specially if my siblings like it. I have to give it even if I like it as well.
