Holiday Gifts

I was given Valentine’s candy from one of the girls, which I initially refused until she insisted. The more I think about it, the more I’m humbled by her generosity. Candy is not a regular staple of their diet there, and is normally reserved for special occasions, or “purchased” with “privilege points” they earn for reaching their goals. She didn’t just give me a single piece, she gave me the WHOLE bag of candy she’d gotten for Valentine’s Day. I feel like I should give it back, now that I realize the high personal cost of her gift.
