'Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need' a quote from Kahlil Gibran. So would you rather be proud or generous? Both have their challenges. The great poet, though, does not say all that there is to be said in this one aphorism. When you give more than you can, you get more than you need. When you take less than you need, you get into trouble! Your big cosmic opportunity now involves the need to develop more trust.
