  • Is Charity makes you happy ?

    Hello friends
    Please give me the answer.

    I assume it depends on what kind of charity you are doing/giving to.

    It probably won't make you happy if you are not happy/depressed but it probably is quite fulfilling.

      Yes, doing things for other people and being helpful and kind are huge contributors to happiness. I'm not sure if that falls entirely under the definition of charity, but I guess we all have our personal definitions.

        Giving to others and being altruistic will make you feel better. some say it is because your are releasing dopamine but I hate to trivialize the experience. It is not the dopamine that make you want to help others...this is the true source of what makes you feel this way. that urge to give of yourself. evolution cannot say anything of this. This is given from something far greater then ourselves and we should all listen in my opinion

          Making a donation to charity not only helps others, it can make the giver mentally tougher, physically stronger and more popular, research shows.In the first piece of research, scientists looked at whether doing good deeds affects willpower and physical endurance.

            Of course because it gives meaning to life. Though it can be challenging and tiring, you will feel fulfilled at the end of the day. That alone cannot be paid by any amount of money. But of course if you are not passionate with what you are doing, then definitely you won't feel happy.

              Why did you ask essentially the same thing in your first 3 posts?
