Joy in Giving
Because
generosity is characterized by the inner quality of letting go or
relinquishing, it reverses the forces that create suffering. It is a
profound antidote to the strong habits of clinging, grasping, guarding,
and attachment that lead to so much pain and suffering. Generosity
brings happiness at every stage of its expression: we experience joy in
forming the intention to give, we experience joy in the action of
giving, and we experience joy in remembering that we have given.
