Even the Smallest Acts of Generosity Make You Happier, New Study Reveals: It doesn’t matter how big or small your acts of generosity are, they result in a warm glow in parts of your brain..

"In a recent study by researchers at the University of Zurich, “A Neural Link Between Generosity and Happiness,” scientists conducted an experiment using “functional magnetic resonance imaging” (fMRI) to understand how small acts of generosity relate to happiness and illuminate certain areas of the brain. The scientists saw a relationship between generosity and happiness, noticing a “warm glow” in the brain as a result of completing acts of kindness."

Doing good feels good, basically. So go do good. :-)

I'd be careful not to over-interpret the findings here. The study didn't find anything wrong with being an asshole.

If you think about it assholes work very well. Much better than a colostomy.

They constantly try to escape from the darkness outside and within
