In pursuit of happiness...

Would someone please enlighten me on this:

There are many people out there who hurt and harm others in the pursuit of their own happiness. And in order to attain their own happiness, they sacrifice others' happiness. Their happiness is built onto the pains of others.

There are people who looks happy in front of others, put on a happy front, or even consider themselves happy persons but deep down inside they crave for power, fame or financial status to cover up their misery or deficiency.

There are people who use the "Happiness of the common" as the pretext to crucify others... Pretending to be noble to fool themselves and others... Thinking and saying that they are carrying out Bodhisattva deeds to belittle others.

Does end justify means?

Our minds are very good at fooling ourselves or fooling others.

Saying is one thing, performing is another.

What will you do when you encounter people like that? What should you do when you are one of them?


May GOD bless us all...
