QOTD #00015: “What's the most thoughtful gift you ever received and who was it from?”
The best gifts come from the heart, but coming up with meaningful gift ideas can be tough. What was a thoughtful gift that you received that made you feel the love, and who gave it to you?
Craig B

Feeling Clipper love from the floor.
"I got invited to floor seats at a Clipper game, and it was at a time in my life when I had just, uh, gone through a surgery. And so, it was really nice and comforting to know that people cared."

The gift of getting skipped. Grr.
"This question actually makes me a little bit sad because I've never had a best gift. I've never had a gift. My birthday is sandwiched between Christmas and New Year's Eve, and guess who gets skipped every year - both ends. 'Oh, I'll get you something for your birthday.' 'Oh, but not for Christmas.'"

A cat backpack, for my cat
"I think the most thoughtful gift I've ever received was this past Christmas, my boyfriend gave me a cat backpack. Not a backpack covered in cats. A backpack that your cat sits in that has a window so that you can go on, like, hikes and walks and stuff. And hands down, that is the reason I moved in with him. It- it- That's what happened."

Tina Turner touching me
"You know, I have to say the best gift I have ever received from a friend, a true friend, was in Sweden for my 35th birthday. He, uh, knowing that I was a big fan of Tina Turner, he managed to get tickets to a concert of hers on the night of my birthday. First row, Tina Turner touching me, telling me that I was beautiful. That's the birthday you would never forget!"
Anthony M
Louisville, KY
Bourbon glasses are a thoughtful gift.
"Man, I think the most thoughtful gift that I've ever received was actually from my best friend's girlfriend. And she gave me some bourbon glasses for my birthday, and I still use them today. So you know, I thought it was very thoughtful. And, yeah."
Blythe G
Los Angeles, CA
The best in my book.
"Hi, um, I received a gift from a friend a few years ago while I was traveling away, and she had collected letters from all of my friends, my family, and put it together in a book with pictures of each one, and I still have it. It's probably been 10 years, but it's the sweetest gift I've ever received. Um..."
Mr. M

A 'keep calm' keychain from mom.
"Okay, so the most thoughtful gift also I got from my mom once. My mom gave me, you know, a keychain. The keychain had, uh, written on it that life is all about patience. At the end, you have to wait for the debt."
Rashid S
Boulder, CO
Didn't know I needed a coffee machine.
"I would say receiving a coffee machine for college, as I am a college student. I didn't even know I needed a coffee machine."
Elyse L
Easthampton, MA
My husband's camera wizardry.
"The most thoughtful gift I ever got was from my husband. He made a video of our daughter pretending that she was a student at Hogwarts. And he learned all of this, like, all of these tricks to do with the camera to make it look like she was doing magic, and it was amazing. It's something I still watch every year."
Beaton B
Little Rock, AR
Parents kick-started my love of soccer.
"I had the most thoughtful gift someone has given to me was probably my mom and dad when they gave me my first soccer jersey. That was just awesome, you know, and, uh, it started my love for soccer. So yeah."
Angelisha G

A possible promise! And a moonstone.
"The most thoughtful gift that I got is probably my moonstone ring - look at that - because my boyfriend gave it to me for Christmas with the intention of possibly proposing in the next year. I mean, who wouldn't be excited about that? Do you like? Moonstone ring."
Ted N
Princeton, NJ
A brotherly birthday gift.
"Yes, uh, when I was three and a half years old, um, my brother, uh, Greg was born, and that was my best half-birthday present ever. Um, uh, he still is. Ah, that's it."
Cristina P
New York, NY
Pinning love on the map.
"So, my favorite gift is the one that's right behind me. It is a hand-carved map from Etsy. My girlfriend gave it to me for our anniversary, and it's the sweetest thing ever. Here's a closeup. You can even see, like, the little pins on the map. It's just incredible."
