Selflessness, altruism, compassion for others less fortunate than ourselves — these are the attributes we need to normalize — now more than ever.
Among the Lakota, things like food, clothing and medicine were distributed equally, so long as you put in work. Individualism was seen as detrimental to the collective good of the oyate (people.) If someone needed a meal or a blanket—the community rallied together, to provide it.
Generosity is such an incredibly attractive trait. Generous people tend to have a glow about them — like a benevolent light.
