As an Indian, had the white man tried to give us gold (taken from our land) as a present, we would have refused it for it had no value to us. All we wanted was to be allowed to be ourselves, the very thing refused to us.
This solves the mystery of the greatest gift to give another, allow them the environment and opportunity to be their true self. The journey to find the true self takes people inward long before it allows them to be able to share the real person with others.
