“One must be poor to know the luxury of giving.”
―George Eliot

What have you learned about giving from being poor?

We give gifts in celebration of the date of a person’s birth, marking our joy that they are here on the planet with us.

The flower feeds the bee. The bee pollinates the flower. Who is the giver and who is the receiver?

What do you do for your own benefit that also helps someone else?

“I know what I have given you…
I do not know what you have received.”
―Antonio Porchia

Every now and again we read or hear just the exact words that we needed to inspire us, provide solace, or to help us understand what was in our heart that we couldn’t quite name. These words come as a very special gift, easily kept and easily shared.

What words have come to you as a gift that you have cherished over the years?
