An observation about humanity and altruism

[xiphias]

Cynics say that there is no such thing as altruism: that we do good things for others simply because it makes us feel good about ourselves.

In other words, we belong to a species that feels pleasure when we help others. Isn't that awesome? That makes me proud to be a human being.
