On “Philanthropy” (An addendum to the last post, perhaps? )

Posted on 20th July 2006 by MRDA

Do people who insist that “one must serve a cause bigger than oneself” really mean to tell you how claustrophobic they feel in their own skin?

    I suspect they don’t *mean* to.
    Most of the people who don’t feel claustrophobic in their own skin, but do put time into things larger than themselves, don’t insist that anyone else needs to do the same.

    i believe that oneself is the biggest cause. it’s the best thing we have to offer.

    Many people don’t seem to have much skin of their own. Rather like a piece of jagged marble just waiting to be shaped by a Raphael.
