Usually when we do things we come to think of the consequences, but what makes us think of why we do things. Is the situation benefiting us or nothing at all. The truth is everything we do is for a reason and that being the case, it most likely benefits us.Someone may do a GOOD deed for someone and you may say "well thats because they want to help and its benefitting the person and not them", i clearly disagree. If you really thinkof it its nothing like that, like I said earlier that everything we do must benefit us in some way. For whatever reason that someone may have to help that person it must benefit the someone in some way. Maybe that person likes to help beacause it gives them a good feelin, they are benefitting their own sence of feeling good. Or maybe they just wanted to help because they wanted to be nice, yet again the feeling they get when they help is benefitting themselves. Even when the case has nothing to do with helping, the matter still is for your own pleasure. Say you dont want to do somethin but your parents insist that you clean your room, one may say "thats not being selfish im cleaning to help my parents out", clearly not true. Yes that may be the case as well but there must be other reasons to why your going to clean, even when you dont like doing it you still do it to please them and in return they stop naggin ans all you want is quiet or them givin you a gift in return for your cooperation is self indulging to the benefits you get. So whether one may say that they are self less it is simply impossible to be selfless and yet one must be this way to please others ,but what about themselves, when i just said that doing deeds that benefit you are impossible. Why must someone be selfless to be a so called "Good preson"? What is a "good" person? These are useless words made up by man to create a sence of wrong and right. Words that ultimately hurt you nonetheless and make you belive that you a re doing wrong. Why live in a world where everything you do is being judged and not ignored or at least appreciated. No one is bad or good its just what we are accostomed to believe and taught to us as children. The only way to live is to not care what people think...in other words dont work so hard on trying to please others because thats never the case. Your always supposed to think of yourself first and then others, yes this may seem selfish but then again we are human. And part of being human is to act upon instinct and instinct tells us to put ourselves first. Everything one does is selfish and noone is selfless.
