Selfishness Is the Worst Thing In Life

Every Person ever born 
will go through the worst moment of their life,
the moment death or tragedy strikes
and though not all alike all will suffer alike

In those worst moments 
all are saved by the people around them
the comfort and support they bring

The worst thing possible is 
you find you have no people around you,
you have no people who care or love you 
you have no human comfort thrown to you 

The worst thing in life is 
selfishness 
but also dangerous is 
selflessness 

we all need to put ourselves first 
but not as a selfish person
alone by yourself hurts worse 
without a selfless person

you're not really living if you're alone
