Diantie's Daily Quote - "It is not how much we..."

What makes us happy? "Sunshine on my shoulders make me happy." (The wonderful John Denver song). How about having a day when everything goes our way?


Today's quote is "It is not how much we have but how much we give that makes happiness." Author Charles Spurgeon.

As a charity worker, I am always giving to some cause or volunteering to help at an event. I don't look at the giving I do as a source for my personal happiness. What makes me content is that whatever little I may have done, someone else received a benefit. As my favorite saying goes "I am responsible for my own happiness." I think the receiver of gifts is the person that should be happy.
