Of Selfishness

Belated Post

People are selfish.Here's my two cents.
You can observe it in two critical phase of life.Birth.And death.

When babies are born, they are taught stuffs.They learn.They think.And they grow.
When they are little kids, most parents would tell their children;
"Boy ah/Girl ah, must share your sweets with others ar"
Or something like that.
In essence, parents are teaching kids not to be selfish.
Does the child need to be taught not to share their sweets?
Probably not.
Because they already know how to do so.

When people are facing death, what do most people think?
They will think that; "It's all right if I die.Doesn't affect anyone"
Doesn't affect anyone?
All right if "I" die?
How many people would think that their own death is NOT all right.
It affects too many people that cares for them?
Not be a narcissist or anything.But, you think it's humble?Thinking that our death is all right.It's ok to die since it doesn't affect "anyone"?
I think it's selfish.

My two cents.
