I physically felt my heart lighten when I read this comment. Seriously.

The effects of generosity should not be underestimated, both for the giver as well as the receiver. And also obviously for those who even just read or hear about an idea of generosity.

I was wishing I could give the comment more Likes—and this morning I remembered the NeedsMoreLikes thread :slight_smile:
