Generous Ideas

Saturday, den 29. May 2010

Flying has been a very key feature in the development of PNG over the past 3/4 decades. The typography of the country severely restricts the construction of an extensive road network. The geological age of the region renders it to frequent “settling-down” earth tremors which are serious factors in the road construction programme. Thus an [...]

Police Generosity

Thursday, den 27. May 2010

Some people think that being a Christian and a member of the Police Service are incompatible. This normally arises from the misconception that Christians in the Police Service would have to compromise their faith in some way, but this is not so. We believe that by maintaining a strong relationship with God we can overcome [...]

Having travelled extensively over the past three decades, it’s been a privilege to see many excellent and creative projects at first hand. My goal now is to generate as much help, both financial and other ways to enable these projects to prosper, develop and become sustainable.

A Double Scoop of Generosity

Sunday, den 23. May 2010

We have a funny idea about generosity. Somehow we believe that generosity is limited. We assume that once a generous action is in play, that nothing can be added to it.
Recently I had a wonderful example of a double measure of generosity. I had taken our littlest one out for Baskin Robins with a coupon [...]

Take a look at what they [...]

Community Generosity

Monday, den 17. May 2010

While shopping at a local supermarket, I noted there were several young Brownies at the check out sector. A quick reconnaissance indicated they were at all the check outs.

Generosity in Management

Saturday, den 15. May 2010

First impressions can be special. This past week I made a rendez-vous with good friends from Scotland. We decided to meet close to a motorway junction in a hotel. Arriving early, I discovered the hotel I had in mind was hosting a mega-event and parking was nil. However, there was another hotel just a few yards [...]

I was attending an evening function in a new – [...]

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Also look up generosity in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
