Selflessness

I went to my Sociology class today. My instructor, Dr. Amy Gibson, is apparently the president of the Tennessee Valley Fair. She brought in free tickets to the fair, and she gave each of us two.

Joel mentioned on his blog that he wanted to take Jackson to the fair. So after class, I approached her and asked her for another one, explaining that I knew someone who wanted to take their child to the fair.

Now Joel can take Jackson.

I can still go whenever I get the chance. I usually do things alone anyway.


If I really wanted to be selfless, I would just have taken the two tickets and given them to Joel, not obtaining one for myself.
