 Giving from the heart means that we give freely - without worry that we won’t have our own needs fulfilled.
Inspiring stories give us examples of this. One of my personal favorites is the story behind the North Platte volunteers during WWII. The women near North Platte (from over 150 towns) organized a “canteen” to serve soldiers traveling through on their way to war. Over the course of the war, they fed over 6 million soldiers. This was all done free of charge. The women made the food out of their own home supplies, and brought it to the canteen to serve. Here’s the inspiring article. Take a minute just to relax, read, and remind yourself of the power of giving from the heart. https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/12/07/503157986/north-platte-canteen-where-the-heartland-opened-its-heart-in-wwii
