So i saw in a clip from a Barbara Walters special where she interviews the dali lama about the meaning of life and it went something like this:
barb: "What is the meaning of life?"
lama: "happiness"
barb: "and how do you achieve happiness"
lama: "warm-heartedness...when you are compassionate towards others you gain self-confidence and that really changes you"
...or something along those lines. And this got me thinking - yea for some reason I am filled with apathy when talking to others and in general not very compassionate and I also have very little self-confidence. Maybe there is truth in that.
Just something to think about.
