Learning from the art of happiness – Part I

After a long hiatus, due to various reasons, I’ve begun writing.

I’ve started reading the book “The art of Happiness” by Dalai Lama, and I stop to think after I read a paragraph.

A few notions that have already stuck in my being are:

 Inspire than awe: How
true this is, we try to always awe people with our strength, our
knowledge, our wealth, our family, our status. Well what is the use of
doing so. Are we affecting some positive change? If not then why are we
trying to inspire, just to massage our ego’s?

                               So what is another way of looking at this, Inspire people show off only for them to become better people.
