“I need to get my life together before I can help somebody else.” It sounds logical, yet it’s not always true.
Let’s think of our lives as a jig saw puzzle with missing pieces. Endlessly we put pieces together, to always end up incomplete. Too busy figuring out how to put our pieces together, we refuse to help others who cry for help.
Realize that those who cry for help might have the missing half of our puzzle. At times, the satisfaction we get from lending a hand to someone in despair is enough to change how we feel.
“Heal another’s heart and in the process you will heal your own.”
– Dan Kelly
So, people….learn to be happy by giving even in your inconvenienced state, make someone happy. Could be a smile, or an alm or even kind words.
“I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know; the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve”
Dr. Albert Schweitzer
So, people….WHO DO YOU SERVE?
Those who know me, know that I am always happier when I give….anything….value adding.
That is me.
