For some, there are times when being kind gets out of hand and turns into enabling, doing for others what they can do for themselves. That is never a generous thing to do!
Today is National Give Something Away Day, and every July 15th, we’re encouraged to go beyond and part with something we no longer need. Founded in 2015 by self-described giver Linda Eaton Hall-Fulcher, the day promotes generosity in all its forms, from donating clutter to charity to performing a small act of kindness for a stranger.
But today, on this Give Something Away Day, if you want to give something away, be sure it is not your dignity and sense of self.
Step 12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
