Author Kent Nerburn wrote a book titled LETTERS TO MY SON: A Father's
Wisdom on Manhood, Life, and Love. In one letter, he teaches his son
the value of generosity:

"Remember to be gentle with yourself and others.
We are all children of chance, and none can say why
some fields will blossom and others lay brown beneath
the August sun. Care for those around you. Look past
your differences. Their dreams are no less than yours,
their choices in life no more easily made. And give.
Give in any way that you can, of whatever you possess.
To give is to love. To withhold is to wither. Care less
for your harvest than how it is shared, and your life will
have meaning and your heart will have peace."
