Love - Red heart.
Surprised at the attention this post stimulated, so it must be quite a hot topic for many. On a pilgrimage walk, or a quasi such, the sense of generosity seems to me natural and indeed common. Generosity in many things - time, help, friendship... -
GaTeach reacted to CTLawGal's post in the thread Splitting bills with fellow pilgrims with Love - Red heart.

I totally agree with Perambulating Griffin: "This thread has been, with some exception, highly cranky, uncharitable and leaning toward the anti-scholarly and conspiratorial in terms of wildly flung accusations. How regretable. I wish...
