It's a weird wish, but I wish I were more selfish. I'm not saying that I'm the world's most compassionate person, but the pressure that the world puts on people in general these days to care is incredible.

I Wish I Were More Selfish
I can't walk around without feeling guilty about something or other, and it doesn't matter how much charity work I do, I'll always feel bad for not donating money to someone who I know prefers not to get a job because he makes more money begging.
I think it just got to a point where I felt enough was enough when I flicked a red ant, watched it die and then felt incredibly sorry because it had to go through the pain and suffering that I inflicted on it.
Really, I think there should be a switch when I should be able to switch it off.
