It usually is best to discuss things like that with someone. An answer could be formulated with that, and it's always good to be closer to that person because of it!

It does! I care about other people in this world, not just myself. And I enjoy seeing the happiness that spreads across a person's face when they've been helped... it makes me happy as well. I suppose I take on the philosophy that was described in "To Kill a Mockingbird". "Walk in someone else's shoes".
