Add Some Joy

“The most worth-while thing is to try to put happiness into the lives of others.” – Robert Baden-Powell

Too often we define our life’s purpose by what we can do for ourselves. Our goals are typically focused around what we can do to make ourselves happy. While there is nothing wrong with taking care of yourself, we have to make sure that we focus on others as well. We don’t pour into ourselves just to keep it to ourselves. We pour into ourselves so we can pour into others. True fulfillment in life comes from bringing joy into the lives of other people.

These photos were taken of one of my favorite spots in Charlotte, Marshall Park. Marshall Park is a small urban park located in Uptown Charlotte. It has a great view of the city and a couple of water features that make for great opportunities to take photos. I also like this park because it isn’t too far from my house. I can usually get there on my bicycle in about 20 minutes, depending on how busy the path that runs along the light rail train is.

Check out this video from Marshall Park.
