Humanity has a funny way of contradicting itself sometimes. All children are taught to share and put others' needs before our own. Somewhere down the line we realize that the very people preach these things to us don't follow their own rules. It is very important in society today to remember the bigger picture, which often includes doing things to help others with no benefit to yourself. People use each other for personal gain all the time. A glorified outlook on this way of life is all around us. In media people are more concerned with which Hollywood star is going out with which millionaire rather than the thousands of people dying of hunger in third world countries. As consumers we see this life and wish to be like that. Doing something for monitary gain is just like money itself: easily expendable and transient. But doing something to help others leads to emotional or moral gain. The memories and feelings you get from helping others won't ever go away. It's worth something to you. Worth more than money ever could be. Hope this hit deep
