one for me and none for you....

ooo my...I'm totally speechless now.

My staffs..all 4 of them surprised me with a parting gift. A Royal Selangor Pewter's pencil holder. Nice, gleaming silver with intricate carvings at the rim. Nice...and expensive. Expensive, in a relative sense, because I know how much all of them are earning.

Now...all I got for them was an aboriginal printed glass each.

Back to my previous entry on gifts...it is the thoughts that matter, or is the cost a benchmark of our thoughts?

Very true. As much as we try to deny it, but we crave for attention and appreciation..
