We are all very generous people with generosity in sharing love, favor and very openly, money.
We bear warm witness to this free sharing spirit when natural disaster strikes. We are more so willing to give when it involves giving to members of the religious order. We offer our share to the monk’s community, to the temple, church, mosque or monastery. Our intentions are always good for we believe such efforts are directed to the betterment of our kind. And there is merit in it.
What about cross-faith giving?
What about giving to isolated causes which are overlooked? A old newspaper collector on his bicycle perhaps? (He too has a family to feed).
What about a young girl with brain tumors in need of an operation? What about giving for her simple joys of a night out with friends?
Do we say no? Cos those do not belong to our belief system? Or the other does not belong to our flock?
What is the color of our money?
