I enjoyed this article very much. It is so true. Living in a small city that caters to tourist, the 2,400 actual residents don't make a lot of money. But, I have never seen such a continuous outpouring of funds, foods, clothes, help to hospitals, or fundraisers to pay medical expenses. This little town gives more than they actually have to help someone in need. It's inspirational. It's a very wonderful spirit that is shared among most of the citizens. The giving/receiving spirit is one of the special energies in the magic of the Ozarks Mountains.
Thank you for bringing the spiritual strength of giving to those in need to the forefront. What is received in return is so rare and precious for the soul of the giver. I do believe in karma!
