  • Yes there is such a thing as a selfless act.

    However there will be some who try to convince you otherwise, who try to promote the idea that everyone is selfish...

    In my opinion... that's just an attempt to excuse one's own selfish tendencies, to make them appear normal so that they feel more comfortable with being selfish.

    • People do good things because it makes them feel good as well to do it. So there is always a little bit of self in every action.

      Person saves child and sacrifices his life. Does it because its the right thing to do and "he wants" to do the right thing.

      Again mostly selfless but always a tiny portion of self.

      • As I said... there will always be those who in my opinion want you to believe that nothing is ever selfless...

        even if it's not true.
