2) Sharing is caring 

Generosity is lending a helping hand to people in need without expecting something in return. For example, personally, during our term break, we went to the Willing Hearts, an unprofitable organisation that helps the Lonely, Elderly, Needy and Special Needs(LENS) in the society, to help out with the preparation of ingredients and packing of food. We sacrificed our time for this voluntary work, without expecting anything in return. ]]> 2017-03-29 04:26:59 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163312740 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163312745 Generosity

1) the act of giving  without any ulterior motive
2)helping other when it does not really benefit us
3) extending a warm, helping hand
Acts:
- the kindness week by the Singapore kindness movement
- sponsorship for education
- I watch a Thai advertisement where the person is selfish in the past. His parents kept on reminding him to be selfless. Unfortunately his parents pass away. He decided to do kind act to mourn for his parents. 
- Personally, when my neighbor was going to travel overseas for a week, there was no one to take care of her pet dog. Hence, my parents offered to take care of her pet for one week and was a life-saver for her.
- When Japan had a tsunami years ago, many people donated money to help the homeless to rebuild their homes again.

- Giving without asking for anything in return

- Giving something that is valuable to you.

- Participated in a campaign where we went to homeless people and gave them food. 

- Giving someone your time
Time is something which is valuable to all and cannot be replaced. For example, there is no way someone can pay you back your time. Once time has passed, it is gone. By giving someone your time, for example, helping out your friend who probably needs support when you could have used that time to do something more productive like studying or even to have your own personal time. Like one time when my friend asked me to run an errand for him and I did instead of going home to study.]]> 2017-03-29 04:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163312879 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163312922 In my (generous) opinion, generosity is sharing what you have with others and being kind without any hidden agendas such as receiving something in return. Generosity is the most important value in the world because we must always try to help others that require help. 
Generosity comes from deep within our hearts, not just doing it because its the new trend which everyone has to do to be the new "cool" person, or being forced to do a generous act.
Generosity doesn't have to come from specific backgrounds, whether you are Asian, American or European, anyone can be generous if they want to, its a matter of choice.
 Generous Acts:
Ellen DeGeneres on the Ellen show where she gives free items to the audience/guest very frequently

My mom always give money to beggars who are selling tissue packets in front a temple without taking the tissue packets as she already has it. This is a generous act as my mom does not expect anything in return from helping the beggars.]]> 2017-03-29 04:30:11 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313024 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313027 Phrases I would use:
-You do not have to be rich to be generous.
-Generosity is the flower of justice.

Generosity is the willingness and ability to lend someone a helping hand without expecting anything in return. It is the purity from the heart that matters.

Example:
- Blood donation.
-With one donation, one could save as many as three lives

- compassion for others
- give more than what you take
- giving without ulterior motive
-  basic foundation of humanity
- giving wholeheartedly
example
Our class went for a VIA activity to visit an elderly care center once and we could see generosity among our classmates as they wholeheartedly tried to engage with the elderly. Although there were language barriers, they continued to do their best in making the elderly's day. ]]> 2017-03-29 04:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313034 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313082 generosity is being kind and helping others without expecting them to return the favor. it is also about sharing what you have with others.

e.g. there are people who give away free food to homeless people. these people do not ask for anything in return. there is another example where a guy who has a meager amount of money to begin with goes and help everyone and everything he meets to the best of his abilities including a dog. he donates money to a mother and daughter begging for money to let the daughter go to school. he also helps an auntie selling food push her truck across the road. he also buys banana and gives it to the old lady next door. in the end, the daughter that was begging for money was able to go to school and teach her mother what she learned. ]]> 2017-03-29 04:30:55 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313082 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313086 Generosity is:
1. The act of giving even though you don't have much to give.
2. When you are sincere in doing something for others
3. E.g. Donating money to charity even if its just a dollar.

Willingness to give/share  ]]> 2017-03-29 04:30:58 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313086 charles_tew_jun_xiang14 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313143 Generosity can be defined as helping those who are in need no matter your situation.  I have witnessed an act of generosity through the media. I came across this video while surfing the internet where an average guy showcased generosity. He approached two homeless men and asked them to arm wrestle. The victor would receive $50. I expected the winner to walk away with the money]]> 2017-03-29 04:31:44 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313143 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313180 Generosity is sharing what you  with those who need it more than you even if you have much.
eg, i personally volunteer at the Willing Heart Soup Kitchen every national day to pack food for needy families in Singapore. During this activity we down to the local Willing Hearts Centre, which is a non-profitable organisation that helps needy families in SG.]]> 2017-03-29 04:32:15 UTC https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313180 https://padlet.com/parvathi_thevi_/4E1MIXEDGENRE/wish/163313190 Generosity is the act of giving more than you take. When you give people who need something more than you do or help someone in need whenever you can, you are being generous. The ministry of Education forces the students to be generous towards needy students. annually , there is the donation drive where students donate money to other needy students. This is an act of generosity by students who can afford to donate money to those in need.
