Should I be more selfish?

I have a condition. And although I have been told that I am as close to Marv In Sin City, not that kind of condition. Well maybe a little bit like that kind, but I digress. The condition which I am speaking of is one where I always want to help. I Help, and I Help, and just to make sure I've Helped enough, I Help some more. And yet most of the time, I feel like I am getting the short end of the stick. Perpetually I am surrounded by a world full of people that through their own selfish outlooks on life they refuse to acknowledge the real and true picture that surrounds them. Yet, they always seem to be completely and totally happy with their lives.  Going from one selfish accomplishment to the next without a worry or care for their fellow men or women. Being that I am the person that I am, I am compelled to try to do something about this, and I am not exactly sure how to tackle this debacle. I am taking suggestions though. By all means, leave me a comment about this. I will also leave you a Comment Question. What color do you think I look the best in? Yellow, Blue, or Grey?

  1. Sometimes it's just easier to worry about yourself. If you tried to fix all that is wrong with the world and everyone else you would be utterly exhausted and depressed. This is probly why you feel short changed for your efforts. Work on helping yourself and the 2 lovely ladies in your life first, they are the most important. Then if you feel compelled to continue spreading the love, go for it. You can't change the nature of other people tho, and can't expect them to be be generous in return, not everyone is created equally. It might be too big of a challenge, even for Teh Glen.

    P.S. Yellow is icky, gray is boring, so blue FTW. Tho I prefer lime green...

    Happy Easter and stuff!

  2. Thanks, I'll keep the Blue idea in mind in a week or so, you may see what I mean. I have been trying to work on myself a bit more, sadly though most find out that I am working on my own things, and they get upset. Thus is my conundrum. Ahh well.

  3. If one gets upset due to you working on your own things, in my opinion they are not your friend (a friend wouldn't mind that in the least). Then again, you never stated if you just help friends, and if it was friends getting upset that you are working on your own things. With that being said, be more selfish. it will be an adjustment to put yourself before others. However, if you don't help yourself every now and then, eventually you won't be any help to anyone else. As for the color you would look the best in... blue or gray, I can't decide.
