Giving Makes You Happier

How Does The Power of Giving Make You Happy?

Giving makes you happier. It's true.




"Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give."

Eleanor Roosevelt


When we give to others joyfully, we experience great happiness. I've experineced many examples of this in my own giving, especially here on this website

Let's take a look at a good, simple example of the giving makes you happy theory. Think back to when we were kids. There was always that kid who never wanted to let you play with his toys. He never shared and everything was always, "Mine, mine, mine!" That kid was NEVER happy. He was never statisfied, usually angry and not generally the kid you wanted to hang around.

Giving Makes You HappierThen there was the nice kid who shared everything without thought or hesitation."Sure Billy, you can play with my toys." or "I brought enough matchbox cars, we can each have two apiece!" 

That kind of kid knew early on that not only would the sharing of his or her toys make other kids happy BUT it would make him or her even happier in the process. There is a certain fulfillment that comes with sharing. 

They were generous in there giving, gave with joy and had happy friends who liked to be around them. He or she was well liked and a great example that giving, even in the smallest sense, makes you happier.

Someone once said that there is no greater power in the world than being able to give freely of one's time, self, or money. I agree with this. I've also longed to be in a position where I COULD give freely of my time or my money. Many times I dreamed of being successful just so I could lend a helping hand to someone else. A single mother who was struggling to put food on the table for her children; a family with a sick child and no way to pay for medical treatments; a person with a dream and no means to help it come true. These were all things I thought a lot about.

Now I do help where ever I can and believe me, giving makes you happier!

"Most people are about as happy as they make their mind up to be." Abraham Lincoln
