Pleasure #6

Give. Humans are altruistic by nature: If we act generously, we feel joyful. Go ahead and try it. Go to the websites of a favorite charity and make a donation. It doesn't need to be a lot-just enough to get a small burst of pride in your chest.

A simple thought but so true. I know that I find even more pleasure in giving of my time, even in simple ways. So I'd add, instead of going to a website to make a monetary donation, invest some time in serving someone. Write an unexpected thank you note. Call a friend just to chat. Spend extra time with one of your children. Give of your time to serve & I guarantee you a huge burst of pleasure!
