 | Happiness Through Service | Oct 22, 2007 |
"I know not what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be truly happy are those who have sought and found how to serve." - Albert Schweitzer Sacrifice really means giving up something good for something better, giving up the good now, for the great later. When a person has a vision that goes beyond self, one that focuses on an important cause that has personal deep value and powerful emotional connection, then there is no resistance to put service to others above self. To an outside observer it would appear to be a sacrifice because some present good is being denied. Rather than being difficult to do, sacrifice becomes a natural choice to one who is deeply, spiritually and emotionally connected to a cause, or a calling, or the serving of another. - Stephen Covey, paraphrased by ... me!
