"what i mean is, as a human, i am flawed in that it is difficult for me to consider others before myself. it feels like i have to fight against this force, this current within me that, more often than not, wants to avoid serious issues and please myself, buy things for myself, feed myself, entertain myself, and all of that. all i'm saying is that if we, as a species, could fix our self-absorption, we could end a lot of pain in the world."
