6 Reasons Why Giving Makes Us Happy
4. Enhances belief in ‘self’
Giving makes you confident and you start believing in your own self. It makes you feel that you have enough so as to bestow on others. May it be help, love, possession, knowledge, care or even a talk. A father- son talk, a mother- daughter talk or a talk between friends to resolve a problem could be a way of giving which could be beneficial to both and thus bring happiness.
5. Helps you bond with others
Giving helps you bond with others. May it be your family, or even strangers. Helping a group of young children with their homework, or helping an old lady across the road, helping your neighbor with picking up dry leaves from the porch, or buying a cake for a poor fellow on his birthday bonds you with them. These are some other ways in which you ‘give’ in life. And all these bring happiness.
6. Awakens you spiritually
Giving awakens you spiritually as you let off the inhibitions of your ‘self’ and set out to help others that you confront. This is the kind of happiness we are finally set out to seek. Giving leaves you with a healthy mind that thinks of all beings around other than him/ her. Thus, this is an attribute that gives happiness to all.
