Unwanted Gifts

"People come into our lives without our bidding, and stay without our invitation.  They  give us knowledge we do not seek; gifts we do not want. But we need them all the same." 
- said by Mrs. Sparrow in The Stockholm Octavo
by Karen Engelman

With a major holiday completed, unwanted gifts create the possibility for story.  Did you receive packages, relatives, acquaintances or friends that fit that category?

Examine gifts brought to you in a variety of ways. Include negative influences that caused positive results.  Gifts can include knowledge gained of yourself through the tribulations of a relationship's needs.

People change and needs change.  How have you met changes and needs?

Creative Write: Detail the gains from unwanted gifts.  Discover a treasure or two.
