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.

Do all the good you can
By all the means you can
In all the ways you can
At all the times you can
To all the people you can
As long as ever you can.

I am convinced that happiness does not work as a goal or destination.
Happiness happens on the way to something else. When we try to find
happiness it eludes us. But if we are pursuing a passionate goal,
happiness will join us for the ride.
Serving others is a responsibility we have to give back to our community
and to the universe. And it comes with LOTS of benefits too! It seems as
though you cannot help another human without benefitting at the same time!
Try it!
-Paul
