Me love me

I would never deny being self-centred and possibly, to the point of being selfish. Because I believe I am and more importantly, I believe everyone is, to differing degree. I absolutely believe selfishness is one of the traits that brought about evolution. It's about being realistic, it's about self-advancement, it's about survival.

Sometimes, I try to do things that seem immensely kind and selfless. But, there is, always, always an element of self-gratification or pleasure derived within.

It's the truth. Nothing wrong with it. Very aware, very upfront about it. I won't disguise it under some seemingly more positive personality traits. I don't need any one religion to glorify my occasional selfless or kind deeds.

I still, find within me, the ability to look anyone in the face and say, "Ya. I am very self-centred." And, so what? Aren't you, too?
