Beyond Just Giving

Beyond Just Giving

The real joy of giving is about having a win-win mindset, by making right, every wrong, 

The idea of Joy Of Giving is to try and encourage a mindset change at a mass level, where there is social justice, fairness and equality for all. It is not mindless, arrogant charity but humble, inclusive social justice that is wanting in our world.

Charity Vs Social Justice
Why do we say mindless arrogant charity vs humble, inclusive social justice? As the Islamic prophet Imam Ali says, “What are human beings so arrogant about? Our origin is a sperm, our end is a carcass and in between we are a vessel for excrement.” This makes us think about how ordinary we are — mere mortals who turn ashes and dust. This should humble us to know our place and live with humility

However, most people think that humility is weakness and arrogance is powerful.

The apathetic question that most people ask is, “What can I do in a world where everything is going wrong today?” The focus is more on materialistic values than on human values. There are few people who say, “I can do something to make a difference in our world.”

This ‘something’ should not be just about giving a little money and thinking you have changed the world. Rather, it should be about giving yourself with humble involvement and commitment to be the change you want to see in the world and make a difference.
