What's for me? .. That's the only question comes before start doing anything. The total base of the thinking becomes self-centered and the person becomes selfish. You don't have to hurt anyone. Everyone, except you, gets hurt automatically by your attitude.

You dont need to hurt others overtly, you can become a left wing extremist as the pelosi...ites and essentially do the same thing by narrow mindedness. you may not necessarily hurt others but the philosophies contained there will accomplish the same thing as they are self centered and usually are pro special interest.

Working people like me recognize this thinking as self centered and resent government intervention and confiscatory taxes that are coming out of dc now as they make any kind of planning for business or personal finance next to impossible...again, not hurt per se, but basically about as selfish as it gets.

"Selfish" simply means self-serving.

You can be selfish by serving yourself or by ignoring others. Both have the same result.

you do not have to hurt others to become selfish, it is when you think of yourself only and only you matters.. while doing things for yourself may hurt others, it is not intentional.. if it is intentional, then you become a mean selfish pig

i do no longer think of that love is split. I basically think of there is diverse little ones of affection. you're no longer likely to love your neighbor such as you do your spouse or husband, yet that doesn't propose you nonetheless won't be in a position to love them. you will nonetheless grieve on the shortcoming of a chum, yet of direction it should not be the comparable via fact the type you greive on your companion. that doesn't propose you do in comparison to them, it grew to become into in trouble-free terms a friendship form of affection extremely than the affection shared between a husband and spouse.
