Today I give something to the community of people in which I find myself. I look around me and wonder what I might add to the world, to someone else’s day and I do it. I recognize that giving and receiving are one channel, that when I open my heart to give, I simultaneously open it to receive as well. I experience the good feeling of getting out of my own way and letting a gift be given through be, as me, because of me.

I feel good when I let go and give

It is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in dying that we are born to eternal life

St. Francis of Assissi
