Believe it or Not; Giving leads you to happiness

If you are Christian like me, I am sure you all have heard this, an affirmation from the Bible when it comes about giving or maybe, making sacrifices- when you have to re arrange your priorities and put other people's matter first instead of yours ; PROV.11:24 & 25 One man gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. 25A liberal man will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered. Or, MATT. 6:3-4 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Does not sound to re assuring to you? How about this; A study at University of British Columbia and Harvard Business School has proven that it really is better to give than to receive. The study found that subjects who spent money on others were happier than those who spent mostly on themselves.  
So give away! Be it a little gift(s), a financial support, a charm bracelet, a bag of cookies... or even, your time :)
