"perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other,
when we don't judge or categorize someone else,
when we simply give somebody the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet.
charity is accepting someones differences, weakness or short comings;
having patience with someone who has let us down;
or resisting the impulse to become offended when someone doesn't handle something the way we might have hoped.
charity is refusing to take advantage of another's weakness
and being willing to forgive someone who has hurt us.
charity is expecting the best of each other."
Elder Marvin J. Ashton
