Meditations on God

You will never be happy trying to make others happy.

But being of service to others is a different story altogether.

Trying to make others happy means trying to be who you think they want you to be.

This means not being yourself, and that will never make you happier.

Being of service, however, means being who others need you to be.

Others need you to be you, the best version of yourself, with something unique and special to offer.

If you can find a way to serve others by being yourself, you will have found your purpose and, in that, a path to true happiness.
