This is the story of my first re-gift, and I hope, it’s not my last one…. Janice slid a gold envelope across the table. She’d invited me to lunch at her country club. It was the first time I’d been there. The place was pretty impressive with its over the top gold furnishings complete with a water fountain adorned with a cherub spitting out water from a trumpet. And not just plain tap water flowed from its mouth, but spa water that you could drink to your heart’s delight. This was how people like Janice lived every day. She was on her second glass of the famous beverage when the subject of my so far non-existent Christmas gift came up. “Re-gifting isn’t usually something I approve of but December was hectic for me so I didn’t have an option. However, I think you’ll love it.” She inched the envelope a few more inches toward me. “Well go ahead and open it.” Not sure what I’d find inside and sensing I might not like it, I let my hand hover over it. Knowing the people in Janice’s circle of friends, I guessed the odds were pretty good that it was a pair of tickets to the opera or ballet.
