Meaning of “The more you do to make somebody else…”
Happiness is tied to outward service in Washington’s address, with care for another person treated as a source of meaning rather than a purely private feeling.
Where does it come from?
Character Building, “Helping Others,” Project Gutenberg #60484. This is Washington’s moral counsel to students, not a guaranteed psychological formula.
