Our Whole Souul Living Theme for November is Generosity, a topic both deeply complex (if we think about it too much) and astonishingly simple (if we simply follow the impulse).  Consider the quote, “True generosity is guided by awareness.”  The implication is that if we are truly aware…: of our interdependence, of our inherent connections, of the transitory nature of all physical things, of our own truest nature…, then generosity flows naturally.  The corollary, of course, is that to the extent that we are un-generous, that is the extent to which we are also living un-aware.
