if you give from what you have

whether it be a little or a lot

yet from afar,

you are generous

 

and that in itself

is no small thing

 

but if you create a soft place,

a safe space for others

to come

and experience

right alongside,

 

offering what you have

not only in gifts

but in your presence,

 

then this is the heart,

the art

the understanding

of what it really

means to share.

 

—sharing is not done at a distance, it is up close and personal.
