Self discovery by serving others.

There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving. 

This last week was a difficult one for me.  I couldn’t put my finger on it.  I had lots of theories but whatever it was I was on the struggle bus.   I dove into what I knew I needed to do and what normally helps pull me out of a funk.  More reflective study, prayer and gratitude.

Thru that I realized that I needed to stop making my struggle the focus and see how better I could serve others.

I decided to make the time to bake and deliver cookies.  I questioned whether it was a good idea as I am already spread thin with all that I have on my plate daily but I knew that if I can bring joy and love to others it would do the same for me.

So in the end self discovery thru service I suppose is a little selfish however it can also be selfless.  Depends on how we let it serve and be served.

Happy, Humble, Healthy.  That is our goal!

What more can we do for others? 

How can we serve our friends, our family and our community more?
