That is the source of happiness in our life.

It's important to differentiate a thought from an emotion. We say things
such as, "I feel like they don't accept me." Actually, that is a thought.
We may feel hurt or frustrated, and it's because we're thinking that others
means “full realization”; just as from darkness, the moon waxes, likewise
from ignorance, the qualities of the mind’s intrinsic nature emerge.
-- Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche

The fundamental teaching of the Buddha is that we should view others as being
more important than we are. Of course, you cannot completely ignore yourself.
But neither can you neglect the welfare of other people and other sentient
people will do for us or how good they'll make us feel.
-- Thubten Chodron, "Don't Believe Everything You Think: Living with Wisdom
and Compassion"
