We, as humans, have actually developed a sense of social responsibility. We have gone beyond our basic instincts.

As thy days, so shall thy strength be.

As human beings, we can encompass a vague feeling of what the universe is, and all in this funny little brain here - so there has to be something more than just brain, it has to be something to do with spirit as well.

One individual cannot possible make a difference, alone. It is individual efforts, collectively, that makes a noticeable difference - all the difference in the world!

Of course we're all programmed genetically to some extent. But the "selfish gene" thesis doesn't explain everything.

Realize that change - whilst we want it to happen fast - is usually the result of a great deal of work, and often comes as a result of a series of compromises (so long as we do not compromise our values).

The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.
