There's No Limit To Being Generous # WATWB # Part I






We Are The World Blogfest  is here with its fourth edition .

                             


#WATWB Badge


Am I truly generous ...like sharing things with my near and dear ones or what about strangers ? Does it only  signify sharing a pen , pencil , book or clothes or could it mean a magnanimous showering of my priceless possessions without thinking twice about them . Well , I can feel a twitch in my heart as the question is not so simple as it seems .

Long or short , old or new , any story of  kindness is worth noting . Just came across this quite an old news about Daniel Black and  Brecon  Vaughan  , an exemplary act of generosity  which pulled my heartstrings because  a person  involved in such act of kindness can only be considered  a godsend.


Brecon Vaughan , is a schoolboy , who is suffering from cerebral palsy . It is only  a surgery that could enable him to walk , but such operations are extremely expensive . How would the arrangements be made for such a lumpsome amount . But the incredible thing is about to happen . Yes , a godsend situation when a stranger named Daniel Black , who was paralysed and wanted to walk again , thought less of himself and gifted a whopping amount to the little boy's operation .





Does'nt  this story of generosity implies that there's no limit to being generous . I feel so and hope we all join hands in being more generous !!!

      May I add a note .. I just looked and apparently Brecon was able to ditch his walking frame and two years ago (2015) was able to walk on his own - let's hope he has got stronger ever since. H
