Description

How does charity fit into a life dedicated to gaining—not surrendering—values? If healthy human relationships are about win-wins, and charity is about gaining nothing for oneself, then is it good?

Duty is ugly, so relieve yourself of the burden of guilt this holiday season and beyond, and see that charity is a beautiful and rewarding thing when properly conceived.
