 We all have a natural instinct to give; 

we all have a natural instinct not to give; 

and we all have the freedom to choose. 

 True generosity is not stationary,

but walks about from place to place.

 Whoever approaches you walking,

come to them running.

 If giving is silver, then persistent giving is gold.

 Generosity is the active implementation of beliefs. 

Chinese Proverb

 If you want one year of prosperity,

grow grain.

If you want ten years of prosperity, grow trees.

If you want 100 years of prosperity, grow people.

 The only way to learn about generosity is to start giving. 

 We are what we repeatedly do.

Generosity, therefore, is not an act but a habit.

 The generosity planned for tomorrow doesn't count for today. 

 Never suppress generous impulse. 

 Generosity is like a 12 - speed bicycle - some of us have gears we never use. 

 Generosity is not only something you feel.

It's something you do.

 If you wish to do good to another you must do it in minute particulars. 

 Close the gap between your generous intentions and your actions. 

 Generosity is like a roller coaster.

Once you have completed the ride,

you want to do it again.

 Cultivate generosity by arranging your life so that more giving will be likely. 

 You are born to give and not to prepare to give. 

 Gifts only come into being at the moment when they are given. 

 If someone takes your coat, give him your clock as well; if he makes you go a mile with him, go with him two.

 Whenever you see someone in distress, don't pity them - relieve them of their burden. 

 The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention. 

 There is substitute for speaking your 

mind  - be generous with your honesty. 

 A kind word is like a spring day. 

 Generosity is a beautiful poem without words. 

Food for thought by George Eliot.

 What do we live for,

If it is not to make life less difficult for each other?

 If someone planted an acorn in front of your house for every kind word you ever spoke and chopped down a tree for every unkind word,

would your garden be a Forest or a desert?

 Grudge - giving says, " I must."

Duty - giving says,"I should."

Thanks - giving says, "I want to. "

 Generosity in words creates confidence,

Generosity in thinking creates depth, but generosity in feeling creates love.

 The fewest words are worthwhile if they are filled with generosity. 

 See if you can give yourself gifts such as 

self - acceptance or sitting quietly without feeling the need to say anything. 

 Avoid flattery; it is not a gift since it corrupts both the receiver and the giver.
