I read from my friend's blog that she spent a Saturday afternoon cooking. She cooked for her dogs and cooked for her husband. Even though it was hard work, it gave her great satisfaction to see how he and the dogs ate up the food. She concluded by saying that it is a real great joy to cook for people she loves!
That I agree! What gives greater joy and happiness than to see your loved ones and people you care about happy? If you truly care for a person, his / her happiness mean everything to you. This makes me reflect on things I have done in the past few years. So how do I derive my happiness in recent years?
Volunteering and Outreach. I have wanted to do something to contribute to the less priviledge for quite some time already. So I started out with carolling to the old folks, then sponsoring a child, then carolling to residents of some neighbourhood, then giving food to the old folks under the Boys Brigade.
Helping the less priviledge is always something I wanted to do, and somehow I feel I have not done enough. Perhaps when the chance comes, I will try to do something bigger, but for now, I derive my happiness from the little things I can do to help.
Cooking and Baking. I have always preferred baking to cooking, except I do not have the necessary materials / utensils at home. I do not really get to cook at home as it is my maid who cooks for the family, but once in a while, I do whip up simple dishes for my family. What I really love is to cook for friends, at gatherings or pot lucks. And of course, if I am to cook for just one person, it will have to be a very special someone. And it will give me no greater joy than to see him enjoying the food I cooked!
Organising and social events. When I found that I had not been making new friends lately, I started joining social events to increase my social circle. And I did manage to find firm friends from these, who introduced their friends to me too. So now I try to organise parties and gatherings for a group get together, hoping some romance will be in the air for some!
What greater joy to make others happy than to make matches of friends? Seeing others happy makes me happy too. It is good to hear wedding bells and attend a wedding of two people I really care about. Besides, I truly like organising get togethers and friends' outings. It is good to socialise and interact with nice people!
Happiness is not derived from what others do for you, but what you do for others. Thus, if you genuinely care for someone, you will want the person to be happy, because his / her happiness means everything to you!
