Sorry to sound so harsh, but I prefer to see the world how it is rather than how I want it to be.

It is okay. That is your opinion. And I appreciate you sharing that with us. It really got me thinking all day yesterday. I think that while it may be true that there can be no such thing as selflessness, there would need to be different degrees of selfishness right? A person who receives happiness through helping someone would be slightly different from a person who received happiness through hurting another because it is a different motive.
