[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 631482, member: 4362"] I agree. A gift is a gift and a loan is a loan. Two different things entirely. Best gifts are anonymous but this isn't always possible. Had an odd thing happen this week which falls in line with your post. We helped a young girl buy her books two years ago so she could go to school and better herself. This was a gift. She insisted on paying the money back when she could. She gave some along and along but we fell out of touch and haven't heard from her in months. The other day a girl that works with my wife was fired. Long story but she did not deserve this. Anyhow, my wife had a grocery store gift card with about $40 on it and she gave it to the girl and told her she hoped it would help her and her family out. The next day my wife went into work and there was a thank you card on her desk from the girl we helped with her books. Inside was $40 which is the balance of the book money. She is now has a degree and is doing well for herself. To me, the character of this girl encourages me to continue giving and helping when and where I can. [/QUOTE]
