Be Generous - Give More Than you Can

Generosity is giving more than you can, and

pride is taking less than you need.

Generosity Is Born When We Are Connected & Present

As desire abates, generosity is born.
When we are connected and present,
what else is there to do but give?

Casa De Paz - House Of Peace

Casa de Paz (House of Peace) - Short six minute film

http://www.karmatube.org/videos.php?id=4616

36th Avenue in the Fruitvale district of East Oakland, California, is the turf of three major gangs.

Yet the residents of Casa de Paz never lock their doors. Anchored by Pancho Ramos Stierle and Adelaja Simon, Casa de Paz is part of a group of several homes that form an intentional community of peace and nonviolence in an area rife with structural and physical violence.

In order to serve their community, they live with the people - laugh with them, cry with them, and eat with them.

They embody "giftivism" - practicing radical acts of generosity that changes the world, one heart, one home, one block at a time.
