In today’s fast-paced world, giving takes many forms, from financial donations to volunteering one’s time and energy. While both have value, I think there is a key distinction: money is a renewable resource—you can earn, spend, and regain it—whereas time and energy, once given, are irreplaceable. That’s why true acts of service, those requiring personal effort and commitment, often create deeper connections and fulfilment, triggering the release of oxytocin.
