Philanthropy brings joy from "summary" of Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie by Andrew Carnegie
It is a truth universally acknowledged that giving brings more joy than receiving. This simple principle has been the guiding light of my philanthropic endeavors throughout my life. The act of giving, whether it be in the form of financial assistance or personal involvement, has always brought me a sense of fulfillment and contentment that cannot be matched by any material possession. From the earliest days of my career, I have understood the importance of using my wealth for the betterment of society. I firmly believe that those who are fortunate enough to have accumulated great wealth have a moral obligation to give back to those who are less fortunate. This belief has been the driving force behind my philanthropic efforts, which have ranged from building libraries and universities to funding scientific research and cultural institutions. Over the years, I have had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the transformative power of philanthropy. Whether it be through providing scholarships to deserving students or supporting the arts, every dollar that I have given has had a positive impact on the lives of others. This knowledge, that my wealth is being used to make the world a better place, has brought me a sense of joy and satisfaction that far surpasses any material pleasure. But philanthropy is not just about giving money. It is also about giving of oneself – one's time, talents, and energy. Throughout my life, I have made it a point to personally involve myself in the causes that I support. Whether it be through serving on the board of a charitable organization or working directly with those in need, I have found that the act of giving my time and energy has brought me a sense of fulfillment that is unmatched by anything else. In the end, philanthropy is not just about making a difference in the lives of others. It is also about enriching one's own life. The joy that comes from giving is a joy that cannot be measured in dollars and cents. It is a joy that comes from knowing that one has made a positive impact on the world and helped to make it a better place for future generations. And that, to me, is the true meaning of philanthropy.
