I found this tonight after repeatedly using the phrase " No good deed goes unpunished ". Now Im confused or is that hysterically optimistic ? In my experience helping an animal feels the right thing to do but often in the long term it makes no difference to the outcome. I guess that is what makes us human. What a folly, eh ? Still it feels such an honorable and kind thing to do.
Nature aside or rather on the human scale easing someones woes seems decent and the right course of action, but there are often future events that occur to your detriment or even to the person you may help afterwards. And then there are those who you cannot help until they help themselves.
True. Makes you wonder, if there is a god, if god also goes by the same rules, and only has interactions with only some people by pure chance or accident, or because it has favourites.
