Don't be fooled into thinking that your happiness will only come from giving. You will need to receive as well.
When we are born, we are pure. We have no desires and we trust the universe to take care of our needs. We don't seek out anything. It all flows to us simply because we are truly spiritual and one with our surroundings. As we get older, we are enveloped in a cycle of ignorance teaching ignorance. Our mind takes over as a basic human survival tactic. We grasp ideas of right, wrong, good and bad throughout childhood. Our emotions run rampant and so we are led to believe that we are selfish to want anything.
The truth is, each desire we fulfill brings us that much closer to our true spiritual selves. As children we desire toys, but eventually that's not enough anymore. Suddenly we find ourselves wanting friendship in adolescence. Once we've mastered this, we long for human love, material wealth, and consciousness. But what is there after we've extinguished all of these earthly desires? The only thing left to do is to return to spirit. Our life has been filled with every experience we could have ever dreamed and therefore our creative journey complete. We must use each fulfilled desire to reach the next step in our own enlightenment.
