@Spoony:

You deny that it's the case, but it has to be true. You don't just do things to do things. There's something pushing you to do it. You must gain something from it. Whether it be experience, pleasure, or an avoidance of something negative.

Would your dad have given if it made him feel like shit afterwards? WHY did you do all of that administrating? Even if you didn't end up benefiting it, you had to have had some goal to achieve.

@ma1kel: Altruism is being selfless. Doing what you desire is not selfless.


whoa.
