Yeah, but doing the right thing, sometimes, is like pissing yourself with dark pants. Warm feeling, but no-one knows unless they're close to you. Sometimes being good isn't always the best thing.
If I don't help, not many will. Virtues are rare these days, and having an Honest heart can go a long way. I may be a bit more aggressive than most, but I like to believe my heart is in the right place.
A wise woman once told me 'Don't use the people around you as a reason, and don't use your current situation as justification. Stay true to yourself, your heart, and who you are.'
Sometimes, raising your own family and starting a new life can put things in a different perspective. You're now caring for lives of your own, and that puts you in a spot where you want them to have the best influence around them. Even minor details could be offensive, and though they're not with you at the moment, that still doesn't change that they're an important part of your life, and that you always put them above everything else.
