I think selfishness comes with a big price.

I have seen what it does to people in the end.

In my life I've learnt that no good deed goes unpunished. When you give a lot and ask for a little in return and never get it I've started to be more selfish

@Justafantasy What you describe seems more like setting boundaries and expectations for how you deserve to be treated. Hope you find success doing so as it is how things should be.

I know
I'm seeing it first hand

Some people only know how to be selfish. Even when they think they are being kind. It comes back to what it does for them

MarbleMarvel

@Bexsy yup. They just want to be the good guy.

Indeed 😊
Ultimately, the price of selfishness is not just paid by others, but also by ourselves.

MarbleMarvel

@Yourwildestdreams sadly they don't realize that until the very end...

Sometimes you HAVE to be selfish in order to save yourself

MarbleMarvel

@Tumbleweed this is true, but there's still ways to be kind and help. I have witnessed people die alone in that bubble. It's not pretty.

Tumbleweed · F

@MarbleMarvel soooo true

BrandNewMan · M

A price often also paid by those it affected

MarbleMarvel

@BrandNewMan that's the way of it.

If there is too much people will more than likely end up alone, even if they are surrounded by people.

@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz I have thoughts on overpopulation but 🤐

Selflessness comes with a big price. Will be fun to watch what happens when we stop giving a damn.
