Generosity ... measured how exactly?

Morning: Psalm 34; I Samuel 2:27-36; Acts 2:22-36

Evening: Psalms 85, 86; Luke 20:41-21:4

Sometimes people say about others, “Oh, they give too much” or “They can’t afford that.”  Or, they presume to say it directly ... “You’re too generous.”  What is ‘too much’ generosity?  Can I measure your generosity by mine?  Jesus does not say that the poor widow, who gives all she has, is too generous.  He simply observes those who give out of their abundance, then points out that the widow gives more than all of them.  It’s strange, eh? ... It’s OK to tell someone, “You’re too generous,” but to say, “You’re not generous enough” is offensive.  Why is that?
