How Do You Respond to Trust and Generosity of Spirit?



Every morning my dog Elvis and I walk past this curb-hugging little flower patch planted each summer by my neighbors Tom and Joan.  Their invitation to cut and share their zinnias (could there be a happier flower?) fills me with joy and a sense of abundance.  In a world that can seem to be dominated by greed, thoughtlessness, and competition, they have created their own daily reminder to intentionally practice trust and generosity.  Because we are all so interconnected, this simple profound act ripples beyond our ability to measure.  

Every day as I pass their invitation, I challenge myself to find something meaningful to give to someone who might benefit from it.  What might you be able to share that would encourage trust and generosity of spirit?
