Joy of living is not about how much you got, its about how much you give.

There was a person who use to talk about
his high earning business a lot. His group had a turn over of Rs 1000 Crores
and he always use to be in high spirits about his money. People gradually
started avoiding him but on the other hand they wanted his company also. They
use to feel happy if this big business man would give them a smile or so
thinking that they might become his favourite. However, same people use to say
that money has entered in his head and he thinks that he is a superior human
being and many things like that. Looking at his life style and everything else
it was clear that he has received so much in his life but is that enough? If he
has lots of money and he is spending on himself, what is the difference between
him and a small rickshaw puller? They are also earning and spending on
themselves. Where is the difference? Difference would come, when he would start
sharing it with others. Then only he would become different. Everyone is
earning and spending, someone is spending more on physical comfort and someone
is spending less. However, if you look at it objectively, where is the
difference? Even animals earn and spend on their physical care. What makes a
human being different then? 
Human beings become superior because of
their intellect and with this intellect they are able to understand each other.
They are able to take care of each other. They are able to help each other
in reducing their pain and they live by their intellect. Ego is very
instinctive and animals live by instinct. If we are living by ego instead of
oneness then actually there is no difference. We got this intellect to reflect
upon self behaviour and our thoughts. If we are not using same, then we are
wasting the most valuable blessing which has set up apart. You can earn
millions and you may have a very good quality of physical life but your soul
would always crave for something more and if you are craving for more then you
have not received actually what your soul wanted. The craving to get more can
only be satisfied by giving. Because then only you would realise how much you
have already received. Its like a shopaholic person keeps buying more clothes
without realising that he/she has so many clothes and for so many she has not even
removed tags. However, when you take a stock of what you already have then only
you realise how much you can give. Then only you will have joy of living and
contentment of doing something or else you would never be satisfied. We all get
so much but what defines our life is how much we have been able to give.

Look at what you already have. Give love,
give money, give yourself to the life Then you would know how precious your
life is.
