ONE — There’s a homeless man in Los Angeles I’ve never met, but who by chance appeared on my Twitter screen today. It’s also his birthday. His job ends tomorrow and the shelter he uses closes tomorrow. So, to recap: he’s already homeless, whatever “work” he has ends tomorrow, and his “shelter” closes.

Happy Friday-the-13th birthday, pal.

His reaction?… here’s his tweet from earlier today:

@hardlynormal: “Here’s what I’d like 4 my bday! EVERYONE go do something REALLY NICE 4 a complete stranger then @ back #hnbday. Please retweet”

He’s having a Friday-the-13th nightmare of his own, and yet his focus is on others.

TWO — Another person I follow on Twitter (@kanter) is at the South By Southwest conference (SXSW) and forwarded this presentation under the heading “Is generosity the new corporate greed?” The presentation is from neilperkin.typepad.com.

THREE — Yet another random twitter tweet from a stranger brought his blog posting for today to my screen. Steve Averill is an Orange County technorati type who blogs and markets and writes and generally cajoles the soul… Check this out:

Business Counterculture: Turn On, Tune In, Help Out

And, by the way, that’s just the tip of the generocity iceberg.

Here’s my question — What does generosity mean to you today?
