The most beautiful thing about getting old is the privilege of finding more meaning in life; meaning that the young will most likely miss. But of course a person may also find old age bereft of meaning. That happens when life had been lived without looking for meaning in the first place.
It is not how much you give that matters. But how much love accompany that giving. Millions maybe given; but without love, what merit does that giving brings? Give then with love, and let that love determine how much you need to give.
Only the heart that is pure and free of attachment to the glories and materials of this world can have the eyes to see beyond the trappings of this world. Grace clears the eyes of the person whose heart is prepared to receive grace. That is why even the most intelligent persons will not see the errors of their ways, having been blinded by pride and selfishness. Only the humble heart sees what no one else can see.
