acting against own self interest
One of the great mysteries of mankind was how people acted against their own self-interest.Points of pride ruined their lives.Envy and self-delusion took them down paths that led to nothingness.Why was it so important for people to maintain a self-image ? There were those who would never truckle, never flatter, never lie, never back down, never betray or never deceive.There were those who lived in envy and jealousy of the happier fate of others.
