How easy it was to slip through the cracks alongside him. To fall in the very same trap I had committed to free him from.

About This Quote

When someone does something that is admirable, it is difficult to understand the person’s motivation. How could this person be so selfless? The problem is that it takes a certain level of selfishness for you to do good deeds. There are always some people who are more concerned with themselves than with others. When someone pulls their weight in life, it makes them seem like they are trying to do the right thing.

This person puts themselves last and helps everyone else first. They help others because they want to help, not because they think they must. People who display such acts of altruism are truly inspiring and make us all wonder why we don’t behave as such.
