Do not only perform deeds that you consider are worth your while performing. It is the small drops of water that make up a bucketful. And charitable or meritorious deeds come from the heart. It is not judged by material things that you give away. A sympathetic smile, some comforting words, a sincere prayer—these are ways of giving too, and these little acts can give greater comfort to those who receive than the material things that you can offer.
