provide peace for another.
- Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama

For some of us, the world appears to provide
only a fixed quantity of each resource -
a limited amount of food, of money,
of love, of success, of appreciation.
For others, life is unlimited.

inventiveness, and service that they contribute.
In this world-view, money that is spent
or given away returns multiplied.
