Inspiration

We shouldn't mistake a lightbulb moment to be the sunrise. Often many such moments must come before a new day begins.

Gift of Charity

We give what we ourselves want.

Whether it be service, or gifts, or kind words, etc. The secret is to receive such gifts with graciousness and "return to sender" with charity.

In other words, take notice of what others give to you - this is what they would most like to receive. Now you know the truest gift you can give to them.

Following through and giving to them the same gift, in the same spirit they gave to you...Would this not be charity, even perfect love, in deed?
