Once, a group of 50 people was attending a seminar. Suddenly
the speaker stopped and started giving each person a balloon. Each one was asked
to write his/her name on it using a marker pen. Then all the balloons were collected
and put in another room.
Now these delegates were let in that room and asked to find
the balloon which had their name written, within 5 minutes. Everyone was
frantically searching for their name, pushing, colliding with each other, and
there was utter chaos. At the end of 5 minutes, no one could find their own
balloon.
Now each one was asked to randomly collect a balloon and
give it to the person whose name was written on it. Within minutes everyone had
their own balloon.
The speaker began: This is exactly happening in our lives.
Everyone is frantically looking for happiness all around, not knowing where it
is. Our happiness lies in the happiness of other people. Give them their happiness;
you will get your own happiness.
And this is the purpose of human life.
