We were welcomed by a tradi- tional ceremony and few items were per- formed by the students of that school, followed by the gifts and dry rations be- ing gifted to the students.

Ally THE OFFICIAL NEWSLETTER LEO DISTRICT 306 A2 ISSUE 03 14 Can Helping Others Help You Find Meaning In Life New research has found that being kind and giving to others can make our lives feel more meaningful...... By: Leo K. Gowrisha Leo Club of Sri Lanka Technological Campus A ristotle wrote that finding happiness and fulfillment is achieved “by loving rather than being loved”. According to the psychologist Carol Ryff, who reviewed the writings of numerous philosophers throughout history, relationships with others are “a cen- tral feature of a positive, well-lived life”. At present many of us seem to be strug- gling to find meaning by gathering up achievements, spending so much time at work that we’re cut off from other people. There are more evidence that kind and helpful behavior causes us to feel that our lives are meaningful, and discovering what we can do to reap those benefits. Researchers have found that having strong social con- nections are important for both happiness and meaning- fulness. However, helping others in need and identifying oneself as a “giver”in relationships were related to mean- ing alone. The idea that helping others is a part of a meaningful life that has been around for thousands of years. So, as human beings let’s spread our love and kindness through helping others and feel the true feeling of happiness. If you are seeking for the peaceful mind just help others and see the difference in you.
