Simplified Meaning:
Real happiness doesn’t come from just pleasing yourself or getting what you want all the time. It comes from being dedicated to something meaningful and important. Think about someone who works hard to help others, like a nurse or a teacher. They might not always get a lot of money or praise, but they find deep joy because their work makes a real difference in people's lives. If you focus only on things that give you quick pleasure, like buying new gadgets or eating tasty food, you might feel good for a short time. But if you commit to a goal that helps others or improves the world, you'll find a lasting and deeper happiness. So, to be truly happy, find something worthwhile you believe in and put your heart into it.
