"Generosity lies less in giving much than in giving at the right moment." -- Jean De La Bruyère
Bring awareness to your generosity
"Generosity lies less in giving much than in giving at the right moment." -- Jean De La Bruyère
While it’s important to give, it’s also essential that we not give more than we can afford. Only you can determine the appropriate amount of time or money you can give away, but it should not cause you hardship. We need to respect our own needs as well as the needs of others. When do you give more than you can afford?
"Generosity is another quality which, like patience, letting go, non-judging, and trust, provides a solid foundation for mindfulness practice. You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity as a vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise in giving." -- Jon Kabat Zinn
