Glad for Their Good Fortune

13 min

Another person’s good fortune need not diminish your own. Through the practice of sympathetic joy, warmly wish happiness to someone you love, then to someone whose success is harder to celebrate, before widening that goodwill to strangers everywhere. Their fires cost you nothing, yet you may still warm your hands.
