People don't always need gifts to feel wanted. Sometimes just being a patient listener helps. And I discovered this in my interactions with Latha, a young college student. At first shy, she quickly opened up once the comfort zone was established.
After a few rounds of interactions she has broken all her inhibitions and feels comfortable to unload her problems or share her feelings. She now feels wanted and has not stopped wondering how a phone call could change her "view of the world" and of course her life.

Hi Mansi,
Welcome to the blog. Quite true. Many a time children want just be listened to. While as adults we begin to talk down and advice more than required.
