It is better to give than receive

Firstly, I’d like to say I agree completely.It is better to give than to receive.I remembered once in a research, the US psychologists measured the happine levels of 16 employees of one firm before and after they received bonuses, what affected their happine most was not the size of the bonus, but how they spent it.Those who devoted more of their bonus to presents for their friends or families and gifts to charity consistently claimed they were happier than others who spent the money for themselves.Unbelievable, right? Most people may think that if you earn more money, you are going to be a lot happier, because you spend more for yourself.But the research shows that people are happier if they spend their money on other people.Why? I think the answer to this is “Roses given, fragrance in hand”.In my opinion when you see yourself giving away money, you think you must be a kind and generous person and you think it will also do well to people who receive your help.So you feel content, you feel happier.Actually, the meaning of life is giving not receiving.I think most of us will feel that when you make someone happy, it makes you happy too.For example, give a smile to your clamates or workmates every day, give a hand when someone is in trouble, help the blind cro the street, write to your friend who is studying abroad...All of these are very tiny things for you to do, but for the people who receive your giving, these are wonderful gifts that cost absolutely nothing.The amazing thing is that when you are giving, you are actually receiving at the same time.You are not only the giver but also the receiver.Nothing can be compared with the feeling you get when you know you’ve helped someone else.And sometimes, your giving could make the world different and even change someone’s life.Lastly, I want to tell you an interesting story.In the past, after people’s death, no matter they went to heaven or hell, they had to eat.But the spoons for them to use were very long.In the heaven, people use the spoons to feed the other people, so every time, they were full after the dinner.So you could always see the smiles on their faces.But in the hell, people don’t know the philosophy of giving, they are really selfish, they only want to feed themselves.So finally, all of them were hungry...Now do you know the difference between the heaven and the hell? So if you want to go to the heaven after your death, next time, instead of buying yourself a coffee, buy your friend another one and that might actually make you a happier person.Above all, since we know the philosophy of “it is better to give than to receive”, we should try our best to help the others, which will make our own lives more meaningful, enjoyable and delightful.
