“every act you have ever performed since the day you were born was performed because you wanted something”
In all of life what you have done, since the first day you were born, has been some measure of desire. A bowl of milk, the feeling of silk, thrill of a chase, winning the race.
Even giving rewards with feeling, makes the act of charity appealing. In all of life what you have done, or at least what you likely would, is rooted in the purr-fectly good.
( playful pastiche, nod to Andrew Carnegie )
