Ironic Altruism
When giving his water to a soldier more seriously wounded than himself: Thy necessity is yet greater than mine."
— Philip Sidney (1554-1586)
Loving Is Reciprocal, the Opposite is Ironic

The titled responsion is altruistic for sure, despite whether or not it feels good to do so.
Philip Sidney
A living contradiction of ironic altruism is the redundancy of a best friend on her best behaviour. We domesticated the wolf to the point of abuse and yet they persist, in our presence and constant companionship. We owe them a lifetime of gratitude and friendship in kind.
Really it's that simple
A loving heart is the truest wisdom."
— Charles Dickens (1812-1870)
The titled responsion is a simple statement. Can you relate?
Charles Dickens
The irony lies in the opposition to reciprocal altruism, which never lowers one's fitness to help another; a dominant species with the capacity to care. How can we refer to ourselves as loving compassionate creatures when the majority prefer to live by the status quo of buying more and spending less? The race to the bottom regardless of how it affects the rest of the community.

The greatest of all truths is that a loving heart is the truest wisdom. When we can accept that love is the only force in life that can truly heal and give life, we begin to have a clearer view of what we need to do to improve our lives and how we can make them more meaningful.
There are many ways we can show our love to others and it is important, to be honest with ourselves about how we feel. Love is a two-way street, but there is something that needs to be done to help our hearts heal. The way to do that is to find the love within ourselves that truly desires to care and heal.
The truth of the matter is that our hearts will never heal if we are not willing to look inward for what we need to feel better. When you begin to see your heart for what it really is, you begin to understand that a loving heart is the truest wisdom. Once you start to let go of your ego, the love that you feel deep within will be able to enter your heart and heal it.
One thing to keep in mind when you are looking for true wisdom is that it is always easier to seek it in the form of a person than to seek it within yourself. It is easy to look for someone to help you with your problems because we have always been searching for love and acceptance. Unfortunately, in the modern world, people have become so wrapped up in their self-centeredness that they are never able to look to their own hearts. If you find your true wisdom within yourself, you will find that love and acceptance can also come from within.
To find real wisdom within yourself is to take a long, hard look at what you are doing and how you are living your life. If you are always seeking outside sources of love and acceptance, you are making a big mistake. When you are able to open your eyes and look within you will find that there is an abundance of love and acceptance within you.
What happens when you allow love and acceptance to enter your heart? Love will heal your heart, and you will be able to experience a complete and total sense of peace. You will be able to be at peace with yourself and with everyone around you. You will feel happy, content, and at peace.
By making this kind of change, you are allowing your heart to be able to achieve the inner balance that is needed for healing. It is the ultimate way to live life.
As you begin to connect with the love within, you will begin to experience a profound sense of love that will fill you with joy and happiness that cannot be found in any other place. This inner joy is one of the most rewarding feelings you can experience and it is without a doubt, the truest wisdom. It is one of the truest wisdom that there is.
Once you can find inner peace, you will be able to understand everything in the world. The great secret is that the truth lies within all of us. What we experience in our lives is true. When you connect with the love inside, you will understand what is true and what is false.
In order to find inner peace, you must begin to be willing to be in touch with what is true and what is false. You must begin to accept what you truly are. You must allow the love in you to flow through you and be received by everyone around you. In order to receive all the love that is out there, you must feel complete peace and harmony within yourself.
When you can feel complete love, you will feel complete peace. You will find that you are at peace. you will no longer need any outside sources of love and peace will come easily.
When you become aware of who you really are, you will understand what you are, and you will feel that love and peace. within you.
