Environmentally friendly gifts are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, and other holidays. The quality of environmentally friendly gifts is usually comparable to or even better than the quality of gifts that are not as environmentally friendly. Because there are such a wide variety of environmentally friendly gifts available on the market, you have many great ideas to choose from. You’ll be able to buy gifts for everyone on your list and do your part to __________.

You can actually give many gifts that have been made from recycled paper. The quality of recycled paper is just as good as the paper made from raw materials, so you can give a quality gift and still do your part to protect the environment. This recycled paper is turned into gifts like journals, diaries, note cards, and similar items. Just because they’re made from recycled paper doesn’t mean that they’re going to be plain or boring. Recycled paper can be dyed many colors and gifts can be made in a wide variety of styles and textures. With the wide variety of gifts available, you’re sure to find something that your friends and family members will love.

Clothing featuring plants, animals, and flowers is popular among nature lovers. If you are able to visit a store offering nature clothing, you’ll have a wide selection to choose from. Jackets, shirts, and other clothing items can have nature scenes printed on them for your favorite nature lover. If you want to personalize these items, you can even have the receiver’s name printed on each item to make an extra-special gift. Many of these items can be made with natural fibers for an environmentally friendly gift that your loved one will enjoy for years.

Giving environmentally friendly gifts is a great way to show friends and family members with a love of nature that you care about their interests. Even the simplest gift will be appreciated if it shows that you thought about what your loved one enjoys and gave them something that fits in with their environmentally friendly lifestyle. Not only will you be giving a wonderful gift that your loved ones can enjoy for a long time, you’ll also be doing your part to protect the environment.

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique(古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.

The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth, so I decided that my approach must be wrong, and I should try another way.

I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,” “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that, it’s nothing.”

Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “ You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, “Would you mend this chair for me?” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver(五英镑钞票)?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.

A few weeks after my first wife, Georgia, was called to heaven, I was cooking dinner for my son and myself. For a 36 , I had decided on frozen peas. As I was cutting open the bag, it 37 from my hand and crashed to the floor. The peas, like marbles, 38 everywhere. I tried to use a broom(扫帚), 39 with each sweep they just rolled across the kitchen.

For the next week, every time I was in the 40 , I found a pea—in a corner, or behind a table leg. They kept 41 . Eight months later I pulled out the refrigerator to clean behind it, and 42 12 frozen peas hidden underneath.

At the time I found those few remaining 43 , I was in a new relationship with a wonderful 44 I’d met in a support group. After we married, I was reminded 45 those peas under the refrigerator, and realized that my 46 had been like that bag of frozen peas. It had shattered(破碎). My wife had died; I was in a new city with a busy job, and with a son having trouble 47 his new surroundings and the 48 of his mother. I was a bag of spilled(洒落) frozen peas; my life had come apart and scattered(撒开).

When life gets you 49 , when everything you know comes apart, and when you think you’ll never 50 , remember that it’s just a bag of scattered frozen peas. The peas can be 51 , and life will move on. You’ll find all the peas 52 , including the ones that are hardest to find. And when you’ve got them 53 you’ll start to feel whole again.

The life you know can break apart at any time. But you’ll have to 54 , and how fast you collect your peas depends on you. Will you keep scattering them around with a broom, 55 will you pick them up one by one and put your life back together?
