Generosity
One of my resolutions for 2015 is to be more generous in all areas of my life. I've been the recipient
of so much generosity on the part of others, from my parents and grandparents, to church members,
to marvelous friends. It is a quality that I admire in others, but have not cultivated in myself as much
as I would like. I read a quote about generosity that set my feet on a new path.
