We are meant to give to others freely. The key here however, is not just that we give, and do so willingly, but that we don't feel the need to get glory from it. That means you cut someone a break, send that anonymous gift, do something nice... and then you don't tell anyone about it. This is against our very nature, but if you suppress the need to boast you will find greater joy in your act.
May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. - Galatians 6:14
