“But giving to other people is what makes me feel alive. Not my car or my house. Not what I look in the mirror. When I give my time, when I can make someone smile after they were feeling said, it’s as close to healthy as a I ever feel. Do the kind of things that come from the heart. When you do, you won’t be dissatisfied, you won’t be envious, you won’t be longing for someone else’s things. On the contrary, you’ll be overwhelmed with what comes back.”

— Maurie Schwartz in Tuesdays With Maurie, by Mitch Albom.
