Why "Pay What You Choose"?
This work is something that I enjoy..
I have been blessed and inspired by so many people who have shared what they enjoy with me. My gratitude is immense, and I now find myself beginning to look for ways to pay it back or pay it forward.
I believe that by allowing people to participate in the gifting-receiving process in a way that works for them, community is strengthened...a network and a reciprocity is formed between people. Choice allows us to determine the value of something for ourselves, and to give back in a way that works for us and feels right in our own hearts.
I believe that people are innately generous. We find ways to give back - if not now, then in the future; if not with goods, then simply with our gratitude and love; if not to the one from whom we received, then to someone else we meet along the way.
We are all connected.
