“They don’t look at a gifted horse” - everyone knows this expression, but very many strongly disagree with it, especially today, when gifts are given almost global significance. After all, it is believed that the more expensive the present is at a cost, the higher the giver appreciates you. For many, it is absolutely normal to “order” a gift, that is, in plain text to tell loved ones what exactly they should give you. Well, perhaps this makes some sense. Let the present in this
case will not be a surprise, but in the house there will be no excess rubbish. You rejoice much more than necessary, though "custom-made" things, than an unnecessary surprise. And a man, perhaps, put his whole soul into his present and, not knowing what to give, he chose it for a long time, sincerely believing that you would like it. Perhaps he would be happy to give something more expensive, but there is no financial opportunity. And this does not mean that he treats you worse than the one that showered you with gold, diamonds and iPhones. He showed attention to you, he did not forget about your holiday, and this in itself is very valuable.
However, you still didn’t like this “suspiciously cheap” figurine or a large plush pink hippo, and you’ve already wondered where it is
disgrace to put. But didn’t it occur to you why the gift is not given? No, of course, they give, but is it good, if only from an ethical point of view? Suppose you presented the same unnecessary pink hippo to another person. But it may happen that he will be familiar with the one who gave it to you. Or give the toy to someone else who may also know your donor. That is, imagine for a moment how a person will feel who has made a present to you from the bottom of his heart if he suddenly sees a thing presented to you by strangers. Would you yourself be pleased to see your gift not from the one to whom it was intended? And this is only one of the
reasons why the gift is not given.
Another reason may be that initially the present carried a certain emotional or semantic load, that is, the giver wanted to tell you something in this way. When choosing a souvenir, he invested in him a piece of his soul and positive energy. But you, not understanding the hint, gave the thing you didn’t need to another person in whose hands the positive could turn out to be negative: the gift was “tuned” to you, and you waved it off. This thing is unlikely to bring happiness and
joy to the new owner. And there is an opinion that a watch does not give. It is believed that such a present will necessarily lead to a break in relations (especially if they are love). Someone agrees with this sign and already had the sad experience of
parting after the presented watch, while someone, after the tenth “alarm clock”, continues to live happily with his companion.
But still, why are they not giving the gift? Most likely, because if the person being gifted is really dear to you, then you simply should not be allowed to get rid of anything. It’s up to you / yourself to be ashamed later that you took the time to search and money to buy a good gift and presented the first thing that was found unnecessary in the house. If you really cannot wait to get rid of an unwanted presentation and you do not believe in all sorts of prejudices about energy, then, of course, you can give the thing to the one who needs it or sell it in the end. To the question of why the gift is not given, only your own "I" can answer.
