The Lady, or the Tiger?" Before You Read: Choice

I have never had to choose between something good for me or someone else. If I did I would probably choose something good for me. Only because my mom said that I don't have to worry about anybody but myself. It's not that I'm selfish or anything I just see no point into helping somebody else.

Not everyone is physically tough in fact, most people who have to go through tough situations are mentally tough. Your body has limits but your mind doesn't which is the reason why people who are old can get through tough situations then most of us young people. Only because they more experience then others and they probably have came across the certain problem before so they know how to solve it and get past it.
