Here is an interesting thought...
One of my resolutions is to volunteer. My life hasn't exactly been a walk in the park, but it could definitely have been worse. I'm alive and well and think that I am all the better for my tough spots. So I wanted to do something to help others who were less fortunate than myself. What better way to do so than to volunteer?
Here is the thought, though.. Ultimately, I am volunteering to make myself feel better. I want to volunteer to feel good that I am helping someone. If I wasn't going to get that good feeling, I wouldn't be donating my time and effort. So is it truly being a good person? Or is it just a different form of being self-centered?
