What is life living for our beloved ones happiness or living for my own happiness?
Written by Dada Bhagwan
Many people in this world derive happiness by indulging in activities such as shopping, beauty parlour, etc. or by celebrating events such as their birthdays, marriages, anniversaries, etc. or from personal achievements such as job promotion, new home purchase, etc.
When you give Happiness, you get Happinessr
But bringing a genuine hearty smile on a face is what Happiness is all about.
And when we do something that makes our beloved ones smile, it overwhelms us with happiness, especially if it is our aged Parents, or sometimes our specially abled children, or any other family member suffering from a chronic ailment.
Helping our beloved ones in their problems gives us a good feeling. Seeing them happy gives us immense satisfaction, and we consider ourselves blessed, “Oh! I am so fortunate to have been able to assist my beloved ones and make their life easy and cheerful. I think I have lived my life well.”
My Own Happinessr
On the other hand, when we only do things that please us alone and care a damn whether this hurts or harms others, it is called ‘living for our own worldly happiness’.
Such happiness is extremely short-lived and highly volatile. Over time, this lifestyle makes one very finicky, impatient and highly weak-minded. So it is not advisable for anyone to choose the ‘living for one’s own materialistic happiness’.
And if it in anyways seems to be hurting or upsetting your beloved ones, this is a strictly No-No option. One must very quickly switch over to the ‘living for beloved ones’ option and resolve the matter amicably because you don’t want to hurt them, right? Right.

Dr. Venus Nicolino: You Have To Make Yourself Available To Find Good Relationships
The idea of making yourself more desirable by making yourself less available doesn't make a lot of sense when you think about it. After all, Juliet would have plunged a premature dagger into the heart of her romance with Romeo if she hid in her room rather than go out on her balcony. The end of Sleepless in Seattle shifts from "awww" to "aw, no" if one of the two main characters skips the trip to the Empire State Building. As these examples from fiction show, making yourself
