Well, I mean, that's it, isn't it? It's not about reflecting on me, it's much more about wanting them to be better people because I care about them, because I believe that being a better, healthier person is its own reward and will ultimately bring more happiness. So, you know, you stir some shit up today but you eventually help things to be better, more deeply and fundamentally better.
I'm just not completely sure it works that way. I think it SHOULD, and I think it CAN, I'm just not sure it does.
And heh, no, I'm making specific reference to a chat I had today, although I know why you consider yourself a likely candidate. :D
