Something...Something.

Some things become priceless when given to the right persons.
Others become worthless when given to the wrong persons.

Once I had carried a rice plant with all the seeds in tact carefully from Kerala to A.P
It so happened that my inseparable little companion and dance student needed one for her science project. She was elated when I gave her the rice plant in tact. None of the other students in her class could get hold of one.

On other occasions I have watched costly saris being presented to women who don't wear saris - just for what we call as 'dumbam' or 'daambeegam'. These saris get recycled and end up with GOK who!

It is the thought and the need that set the value of any gift and not the actual costs or other hooks attached to it.
