为别人而活

For the sake of other men

　　Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why,yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose.

　　From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here　for the sake of other men—above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own　　happiness depends, and also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected　by a bond of sympathy . Many times a day I realize how much my own outer and inner life is　built upon the labors of my fellow men, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert　myself in order to give in return as much as I have received. My peace of mind is often troubled　by the depressing sense that I have borrowed too heavily from the work of other men.

　　To ponder interminably over the reason for one’existences own or the meaning of life in　general seems to me, from an objective point of view, to be sheer folly. And yet everyone holds　certain ideals by which he guides his aspiration and his judgment. The ideals which have always　shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth. To make a　goal of comfort and happiness has never　appealed to me; a system of ethics built on this basis　would be sufficient only for a herd of cattle.
