I agree, people seem to only think in the moment, and about themselves. I know my boys think about others, they have had to all their lives, being raised by a severely handicapped father. They have grown up very caring, and I see it in them all the time, holding doors, helping people to do things, I know when they were younger and we lived in a older community, they were always helping the neighbors with little things. One of the funniest things that happened was, our neighbor catty cornered from us had a stroke and was no longer able to brush her dogs hair, and my youngest volunteered to do it,well she also had an African Gray, and it picked up on Kyrk's voice, and Kyrk always said come here Honey to the dog and she would come a runnung all excited that she was getting brushed, the bird mimicked him so well. that the dog would get excited but couldn't find Kyrk. It was really funny to see this.
