Good morning good people !
“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
—Winston Churchill
*"Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get!*only with what you are expecting to give!*which is everything!"

Inspired by conversations with leaders in philanthropy, we recognize the need for a more democratic approach to giving. Traditional models often miss those who need it most. It’s time to empower community voices—those who know best where funds are needed. #Giving #Community
You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. But I say to you that you must not oppose those who want to hurt you. If people slap you on your right cheek, you must turn the left cheek to them as well. When they wish to haul you to court and take your shirt, let them have your coat too. When they force you to go one mile, go with them two. Give to those who ask, and don’t refuse those who wish to borrow from you.
[Ἠκούσατε ὅτι ἐρρέθη, “Ὀφθαλμὸν ἀντὶ ὀφθαλμοῦ” καὶ “ὀδόντα ἀντὶ ὀδόντος.” ἐγὼ δὲ λέγω ὑμῖν μὴ ἀντιστῆναι τῷ πονηρῷ· ἀλλ᾽ ὅστις σε ῥαπίζει εἰς τὴν δεξιὰν σιαγόνα [σου], στρέψον αὐτῷ καὶ τὴν ἄλλην· καὶ τῷ θέλοντί σοι κριθῆναι καὶ τὸν χιτῶνά σου λαβεῖν, ἄφες αὐτῷ καὶ τὸ ἱμάτιον· καὶ ὅστις σε ἀγγαρεύσει μίλιον ἕν, ὕπαγε μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ δύο. τῷ αἰτοῦντί σε δός, καὶ τὸν θέλοντα ἀπὸ σοῦ δανίσασθαι μὴ ἀποστραφῇς.]

A quotation from Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Give of thy gold, though small thy portion be.
Gold rusts and shrivels in the hand that keeps it.
It grows in one that opens wide and free.
Who sows his harvest is the one who reaps it.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919) American author and poet.
“Give,” st. 3, New Thought Pastels (1906)

A quotation from Peters, Ellis:
«
Cadfael was not of the opinion that a man’s main business in this world was to save his own soul. There are other ailing souls, as there are ailing bodies, in need of a hoist towards health.
