It doesn't sound like you care about yourself much? Hard to care about others or understand why someone would if we don't care about ourselves first/either.

I think a lot of "care" is indirect; if we have children we care about other people's children because we want other people to care about our children when they're away from us. "Children" isn't something I'm concerned with right now but the elderly, that sort of thing because I'm coming up on that age myself. I care about me and how I'll be treated so am interested in laws, care, etc. as it relates to the elderly, individuals I hear about as they relate to my loved ones or anticipated future.
