This week I'm providing you with some quotes about generosity. This is an often overlooked virtue and one that is truly instrumental in fostering your own happiness. We were designed to be generous in our love and giving. If you wonder whether this is really true or not, let me ask you this: have you ever met a happy miser?
"What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal."
— Albert Pike
"Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give."
— Eleanor Roosevelt
"No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave."
