Make things better by making better things.
Making a choice that benefits someone else, perhaps someone not even born, that is against our nature.
The default setting isn’t to think about ourselves. Of course, it wasn’t always this way. We can find examples in the Bible or in the marines. The emphasis then is to lose oneself for something greater than ourelves. And this is how we create zealots as well.
It seems to me there needs to be a balance we need to strike. The ability to lose oneself when we hit the limits of “me.” At the same time, be able to switch to something where the self cannot exist.
Because when we are alone, we are lonely. And when we are together, we are stong.
