"Soul" Food Mondays || Genuine Happiness

Genuine Happiness.

Helping and serving others. Have you ever donated to a cause? Or volunteered at a soup kitchen? Or voluntarily relinguished your seat to an elderly rider on the bus/train? Do you remember the feeling you had after accomplishing these tasks of service? A feeling of having met another person's need. A feeling of making a difference. A feeling of worth. A feeling of happiness and satisfaction. Well, certain studies have demonstrated a link between helping others and happiness, and the articles below explain this link. If you are pursuing genuine happiness, make it a point to help others regularly. Put a smile on another person's face, and the result will be one on your face as well!
