We all have something to offer. We can all contribute something.
And we all want to.
Having nothing isn't just a practical survival issue. When you often receive from others, and rarely have an opportunity to give, it's hard to feel like you have anything to offer. And it's hard to see how your presence and time matters.
The solution? Or at least one solution? How about a community garden.
For those without many options, community gardens can be a space where they can contribute their time and there presence, and see meaningful change after even half an hour of work.
And more that this, there is the opportunity for generosity. To share the fruit of your labour with others.
To give a carrot to a toddler. An act of hospitality and generosity so simple, yet potentially so restorative.
Dignity maintained. Mana enhanced. With nothing but a carrot.
