I try to approach life with a goal of making someone else's life a little easier each day.

I'm not always able to make myself feel better, but if I can make someone else feel better, well, that makes me feel a little better.

And like, obviously you shouldn't burn yourself to keep others warm. But building a fire for others can give you a chance to take part in the warmth yourself.
