‘I slept and dreamt that life was joy.
I awoke and saw that life was service.
I acted and behold, service was joy.’
-Tagore
Service to others brings purpose and with purpose brings value, meaning, appreciation and fulfillment unto joy.
Stop hunting for happiness – bring joy to you through finding what’s fulfilling.
Trying to hunt for happiness ? We have to remember that happy is a feeling -and well… I hate to break it to you but feelings are fleeting. However, the great news is, that it doesn’t mean you can’t find ways that brings happiness to you.
As beings we all share a deeper decency and privilege than that of trying to fill a void. If we are primarily focused and selfishly hunting for happy then we are looking to fill. And there isn’t anyone or anything that can be filling enough to keep happy permanent. There are only so many thrill-seeking adventures we can do before we get exhausted in trying to get that ‘feeling’ again. No amusement ride lasts…and … There is no magic pill or magic potion that brings joy.
So it’s time to get real and start thinking deeper- think fulfilling instead of just filling… and serve a purpose.
Appreciation is the highest most meaningful, valuable and fulfilling way to bring in joy by being in service to others… No this doesn’t mean you have to move mountains – remember it’s the littlest things that have so much more meaning and enrichment. If we shared this appreciation and gratitude by being in service to others, it isn’t going out of your way – but it’s bringing a way of life to you with purpose through a purpose. This brings what’s fulfilling to our lives, homes, relationships and communities as an understanding of gratitude and honor in being part of something bigger, fulfilling and much more prosperous…. In fact it’s priceless.
Enjoy🌹
