Selfishly Selfless

Why do you do what you do?
Many people interject their opinions on others. They feel that it is the obligation of others to conform. If people do not conform to the mass appeal they are wrong.

How horrible a life it must be to feel that you are responsible for judging every other person.

Take a moment to judge one's self. Take a day to judge one's actions. Take a lifetime to judge one's choices.

If you take action, give wisdom, or provide for another and expect or demand return on their part, without them coming to you asking in the first place, you are not selfless. You are not a great champion or revered martyr. You are being selfish.

Give up the self. Give without considering repayment. Provide wisdom without demanding obedience. Save someone and let them live on.

Give up on the demand of the world fulfilling your good deeds. Do good so that it uplifts you and everyone you touch.
