36 year old musing

Remembering a story one of my great-uncles used to tell about my 5-year-old incarnation.

He was watching me play with toys, and then my little sister Rebecca came up and asked for one of the toys I was most enjoying.

After a moment of reflection, I gave it to her, and then I commented to him that "Sometimes it feels good to do something for someone else that you don't want to do."

What about this ... a step beyond perhaps:

X = thinking Y makes me feel good

Y = thinking X makes me feel bad
