About This Quote
True happiness comes when you give your best in something beyond yourself. You are forced to rise above yourself and focus on something greater than yourself. If you are doing this for the purpose of making others happy, then you are being selfish. That kind of happiness is fleeting because it’s not real. The kind of happiness that comes from giving your best in something beyond yourself is true happiness.
