Generous: Generous is an adjective describing a person who is willing to give more of something, such as money, time, or resources, than is strictly necessary or expected. It denotes a kind and liberal nature, often associated with being unselfish and caring towards others’ needs.
NOTE: There are areas where we can express our generosity. We can express it monetarily in the form of cash or gifts. We can express it in the sharing of our time to benefit another person, group, or cause. We can share our gifts/talents by putting the things we do well to use in the service of others. The research indicates that when we are generous we experience feelings of happiness, satisfaction, and well being. Generosity works for both the giver and receiver. In either case, the giver and receiver can share one important value, gratitude. The giver can be grateful he/she had the personal and material resources to generously share. The receiver can be grateful because they received an unexpected generous gift without strings attached.
