I ended up writing a really long response just to let you know that I am trying to respond to you the best way I know how but I realize in short what motivates me is doing good itself. I like knowing I am helping someone and contributing, that is good enough for me. I think a lot of other people feel the same way to, but we only notice when someone screws up. I truly want anyone here to know that I am not a good person by my own standards, but I want to be and will be if I try.
I do know why because good is good and therefor I want to serve good. Is that so hard to understand? It serves no deeper motive than the fact that I like doing good, although sometimes, maybe more often than not, doing the right thing is harder, but still I enjoy it. I certainly don't like serving the other side, further separating us, spreading more hate and so it goes. Yet I still do at times. And honestly it's absolutely tearing me apart being a part of both.
Do you believe in karma?

So, you don't really know why? You just want to do good?

It is (hard to understand) for me.
Most people I know have no interest in doing good.
I do, but it's for a couple of reasons.
So, I guess, you're special in my world.
