The Key Difference



The total amount of happiness
that exists in the world has come from
wanting to make others happy.

The total amount of suffering
that exists in the world has come from
wanting to make yourself happy.

What need is there for many words?

The children of the world
work for their own sake;
the Enlightened Ones do their labour
for the sake of others.

Come and see the difference.

- Shantideva -

Come and make the difference!

(The Daily Enlightenment)
