“Charity begins at home” is an expression we have all heard and I’m sure used and today I learnt just how true that is! Historically‚ the phrase is not linked to the giving of money at all but is in actual fact a word of Latin origin. “Caritas” means dearness and the giving of love based on respect‚ as well as expensiveness (much in the way that we use dear for both senses in the English language).
