You deny that it's the case, but it has to be true. You don't just do things to do things.

So far so good...

There's something pushing you to do it.

Losing me...

cheesesoda wrote on Thu, 12 February 2009 14:08

You must gain something from it.

...lost me.

Would your dad have given if it made him feel like shit afterwards?

Haven't I already answered this? I guarantee he could've spent it on something he really would've enjoyed, another European holiday with my mother perhaps. They love them, and the amount he spent would've probably paid for at least one. If he felt any personal satisfaction from the donation it was almost certainly trivial by comparison, and it definitely didn't impact his decision.

WHY did you do all of that administrating?

Because nobody else could be bothered. I never cared about anything I might have stood to gain as a result, and it certainly gave me more annoyance than satisfaction - as I knew it would before I even started it.
