Buddhism has a term for the happiness we feel at someone else’s success or good fortune. Sympathetic joy, as it is known, invites us to celebrate for others.

The more we identify and acknowledge moments when we’re unable to share in someone else’s pleasure and ask ourselves whether another person’s happiness truly jeopardizes our own, the more we pave the way for experiencing sympathetic joy

The practice of sympathetic joy is rooted in inner development. It’s not a matter of learning techniques to “make friends and influence people.” Instead, we build the foundations of our own happiness. When our own cup is full, we more easily share it with others.

I went back to my room and spent all night contemplating whether it was possible in life not to be constantly let down. If it could ever be worth pinning your happiness to another person, when all other people ever seemed to do was disappear.

Das Einzige, wonach wir mit Leidenschaft trachten, ist das Anknüpfen menschlicher Beziehungen, nichts ist uns umgekehrt so schmerzlich als das Auflösen derselben. Unser Glück und Unglück hängt von unseren menschlichen Beziehungen ab.

Making someone responsible for your misery also makes them responsible for your happiness. Why give that power to anyone but yourself?

I can’t control my feelings, but I’m learning to have a say in how much my feelings control me.

There is absolutely no point in comparing ourselves to others. Everyone brings to the world exactly what they are meant to bring, and in doing so touches exactly who they are meant to touch.

We will never find the perfect job, relationship, or situation. What we can do is search for happiness. Our ideals in life are set by others, and it’s because they haven’t mastered the art of the happiness search.
