There’s something wrong with this example, but it’s hard to say what. It seems to treat happiness as a tradable commodity that pre-exists anyone actually experiencing it.

Like everyone knowing everyone else..and I'm sure this is a great analogy to be used regarding teamwork in general. I still like the happiness example tho
These little allegories hurt like hell to people who have spent their lives helping others and have come out empty, drained, alone, and devastated every time. Being told we need to keep doing it or that we should feel happy and fulfilled having been used up like that is cruel.

I get it! So, the idea is that if we forego searching for happiness, we will assist other with finding their happiness. That action *should* create a sense of joy with in us. The joy won’t fade because we see others happy.

But, what if no one ever finds our balloon? Are we hoping that one day the search will be reciprocated? What if that day never comes? And now what if I become so good at finding others balloons that people come from far and wide to get me to help…

You will need meds for anxiety but you’ll be okay in the long run. Or you’re just that person who has to be the devil’s advocate, in which case: shush.

Do I just live on never getting my balloon and just helping others? If we are speaking in generalities here, sounds like a life in service to others, which can be rewarding, for sure, but…now I have become entangled into some unrequited love affair with the happiness of others

What a beautiful message and at a time when we need more acts of kindness in this country. Hats シルクハット off to the educator who did this!! 赤色のハート

I think the issue is, that either too many people need two balloons to be happy, or, if after being given their own balloon, they drop the one that they're supposed to deliver.

Many of the answers to this tweet are part of the country's problem. It either went over their heads or they are deliberately trying to pop everyone's balloon. Sadly, that's where they think their happiness will come from..

A lot of people just trying to outsmart a simple metaphor just 'to be right' and justify whatever world view or simply to ride in their high horse.
