Start Giving....
A beautiful, rich and perfect-living woman feels there's something missing inside her. One day, she can't live longer with the emptiness therefore she went to visit her psychiatrist and said dat she wants to be happy.
The psychiatrist brought an old cleaning lady and told the rich woman, "Mary will tell you everything how she find happiness here and I want you listen to her."
The old cleaning lady put down her broom, sat at the nearest chair and start telling her stories: "OK, my husband died of malaria, and my only child died because of an accident. I don't have anyone, I've lost everything. I can't sleep, I can't eat, I never smile at anybody, I even thought of ending my life. Until one day a kitten followed me home. Once I feel sorry for the kitten."
"The weather was cold outside, so I decided to let the kitten stay for a while. I gave her milk and she drank it, then she start showing her affection on my feet and for the first time I smiled."
"I thought for a while if helping a kitten can make me smile, maybe doing something for someone can make me happy. So the next day, I brought biscuits for my ill neighbours. Everday I try to do something helpful. To see other people happy makes me happy as well. Today, I don't know if there's anybody who can sleep or eat better than me. I've found happiness by giving."
By the time Mary finished her story, the rich woman cried. She got everything that can be bought by money but she lost something that cannot be bought by money.
