All,
I cannot even attempt to characterize this gift. Why?
...because its relevance is such that only you have the power to determine it.
...and because there is soooooo much, much more of it to enjoy:

"Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open?"
Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī
While joking with our colleague, RedEmbers, in this exchange (see post #182 in this thread) I said to her, "As a man thinks, so is he"....until he puts down the fork, and picks up a spoon to cut his steak! (Uh, that's a little dining utensil manifestation pun!)"...
...I was surprised to find out what a SPORK is HERE: https://www.spiritualforums.com/vb/s...postcount=7563, stating, ironically that "Sporks are commonly used by fast food restaurants, schools, prisons, the military, backpackers and in airline meals."
Big deal, Guthrio!! What's so all-fired interesting about that, and furthermore, what does your precious Rumi quote have to do with sporks ??? 
That's when I realized what the "prison" is... it's the "prison paradigm" of ideas I've adopted to live within as my daily life...while believing, and acting as if I'm actually limited ("imprisoned") by the ideas within it.
Before we escaped from the the prison of "eating utensil correctness" (a fork is a fork and a spoon is a spoon), someone had to believe they had the "freedom" to conceive the "spork" as a metaphor for perceiving "outside the paradigm" of ideas of what a spoon or a fork is.
That's when it hit me yesterday that the door is so wide open to escape from being bound by any ideas that have "hemmed me 'round", cowed, cowering, and hungrily waiting to be fed by more of them!!
...when the incalculable treasure beyond the corral awaits within us, just as Rumi says, below. Don't believe me?
See for yourself then, how every single Rumi quote provided in the 1st reference below "sporks" you to:
"Change your paradigm, "Unlock" your world" - Guthrio
Enjoy every bite of your awaiting feast!

To RedEmbers,
...Please accept my apology if my "highlighted" in the quote above, in any way indicates those are your words speaking to me. That is me speaking internally to me, to indicate my own thoughts....not your words.
I so much enjoyed the great time we had discussing our "cuppa" questions.
Hope you are still having fun with the "Stanislavski" school of manifesting, (What a great idea!) and are continuing to enjoy ALLLLL the wonderful opportunities you've chosen to explore.

Yesterday I bought myself a beautiful lavender and pink shawl with navy blue and sky blue florals and triple pink and black 'ribbon' panel borders. It's very esoteric looking. 
Intricate patterns. |

Ciona,
....as within, so without. May your gift's beauty reflect your own.

So be yourself and enjoy Life in your own Divine way. Do not fear to be your true self, for everything you want, wants you.
From the CHAPTER VII Things to Remember in the reference below:

Everyday I remind myself how important it is to love myself and others. I couldn't ask for anything more. Love and light to you's all. Amen

Utopiandreamchild,
There is no more precious gift to give to oneself and others than what you have just offered above.
Love and light to you as well my Friend.
