Good deeds are done every day. It isn’t about just moral duty, it’s about how much some people care about mankind. There is no personal gain involved, you do it out of the niceness of your heart.

But you should always have faith because there are people out there who do things not for their sake, but for humanity’s sake. Still don’t believe me? Let’s see if this helps.
