Life feels worthwhile when it’s been used for the betterment of others
Yes, that may come across as preachy, yes it’s probably an unpopular POV in what has become an extremely selfish world
But it doesn’t make it any less true
Being there for others, especially those you love and care about, those you are grateful to have in your life….it’s the best feeling in the world
Why spend your life consumed by selfish wants and needs when you can just as easily pass the time in service to your fellow man, in service to humanity
I’m not talking about complete disregard for your wants and needs because the irony of being helpful to others is you gain a greater sense of what actually fulfils you and what you want out of life
And even more ironic than that is you begin to realise that you already have that ‘feeling’ that you think those things outside of yourself would bring
It’s already within
Service is a great antidote to that feeling of emptiness. It’s a great shield against self centred worries and concerns that more often than not paralyse you into inaction
No service requires, demands even, that we act. Action is at the centre of a call to serve, engaging with the world and actually living life is what a life of service is all about
Serve others and without consideration for your own needs, you’ll soon discover that yours have been met too
Be well
