the Painting Activist

Ok, it’s a little mushy, but this quote certainly describes why I derive so much happiness from work which is of service to others:

“If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.” - Mitsugi Saotome
