By giving to others we make space within our lives for more. By sharing with others our joy of Buddhist practice, by encouraging others to never give up, by sharing our material as well as spiritual gains we make space for being refilled, being refreshed. We may think that if we give it away there will be an empty spot, but the nature of life is that the empty spot will not remain empty as long as we make space for compassion and caring for others.
