"Sacrificing your life for others is the greatest expression of love."
What does it mean to sacrifice your life? It doesn't mean to kill yourself. It means to live in others instead of yourself. Give up your life for others.
Instead of seeking to benefit yourself, seek to benefit others.
Instead of having concern for yourself, have concern for others.
Instead of thinking about making yourself happy, think about making others happy.
Instead of looking out for yourself, look out for others.
Instead of working to fulfill yourself, work to fulfill others.
Instead of protecting yourself, protect others.
Instead of working for yourself, work for others.
Instead of making yourself comfortable, make others comfortable.
Instead of thinking about your own pleasures, think about the pleasures of others.
Instead of living in your own desires, live in the desires of others.
Instead of living in yourself, live in others.
Come out of yourself. Let go of yourself. Stop living in yourself.
Connect with others, seek to benefit others, live in others.
Make your life about others instead of yourself.
What does it mean to live in others? It doesn't mean to do anything that makes others happy. There are lots of harmful things that make people 'happy'. You have to benefit others, meaning you have to do what's good for them. Seek only to benefit others.
