The purpose of having a long life is not just for our own happiness
“The purpose of having a long life is not just for our own happiness. The purpose of life, every day, every hour, every minute, every second, is to be useful for others, to be beneficial for others, to cause happiness for numberless other sentient beings. Those who are suffering, who need your help and support, who need your compassion, who need your loving kindness, are numberless. Whether it is one sentient being or many, the meaning of life every day is to make our lives beneficial for them. That is the purpose of living.”
