Share Your Ideas for Unique Gifts As Well As Your Gift-Giving Experiences
Best Wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
A group of friends set up the original UMGI site in 2005, and even though none of us still know what we're doing, we’ve decided to keep the web site going under a different service provider for a lot less money. By the way, if you have a chance to use them, the price we got through the Web Stuff Shop, for everything, is great! That's why their ads are everywhere for now. And the staff is very helpful.
We really wanted to add a more interactive feature and this was the easiest way to do so. We've added a Gift Blog page where we intend to add content about unique gift ideas on a more frequent basis. You can add your thoughts on gift giving — both material and non — as well as your experiences, suggestions, and resources in the comments below or on our blog page.
For this Discuss Gift Giving page, we're sort of starting a forum to continue a discussion we've been having on the nature of giving gifts and how those acts differ (or not) from general shopping for stuff that we don't need. That's why we decided to focus on the concept of "unique-and-mindful gifts." We welcome your input as we keep refining what we mean and what makes the gift experience meaningful.
Help us make this site as we intended — a place to share with each other ways to make the world a better place by giving to others more than we receive and passing along the attitudes of love, gratitude, peace, and joy that make such unconditional generosity possible.
Check in with all of us in the comments and dish on the particulars of any or all of your gift-giving efforts, even if that means reporting on the need for some extra loving yourself at the start of another year.
Wishing everyone much abundance and lots of good things in 2008!
