11. It’s rewarding
“Seeing other people happy is reward enough.” — SleazySerpent1469
12. Natural high
“I’d rather put positive vibes out into the world. It feels good.” — stick_a_fork_in_it
13. Being responsible
“We are all responsible for what we bring to this world, be it hate, anger, joy, acceptance. I like thinking that I can bring a bit of happiness into the lives of others.” — Spectrum2081
14. Being warm
“One thing my Dad taught me is everyone has a story. We don’t always understand what it’s like to be in someone else’s shoes. In my personal perspective, when I encounter someone bitter and cruel, it reminds me that it’s a cold world out there — it needs warmth. I try to be that warmth; even if I don’t receive it in return.” — AHopefulOptimist
15. Super inspiration
“I mean, I don’t expect people to be kind, but also, superheroes. I grew up reading comics, it’s what led to me choosing my career and like 90% of beliefs come from superheroes and then the other percent is like what my parents raised me with and also some Buddhism sprinkled in there. In short, I treat everyone like they are my mom, my dad, my siblings, everyone is family to me and I wouldn’t want to see any hurt on them.” — throwaway026520
16. Karma
“Being kind in itself is a good feeling. Don’t really care why others are unkind because I can’t control everyone’s actions. Just take the good feelings from it and go. Also, karma. Don’t want to be a cockroach in my next life if there is one.” — Lilyboo848
17. Giving a hand up
“There’s two types of people who have had a rough life. The ones that say ‘I had to suffer so you should too’ and the ones that say ‘I had to suffer so I don’t want anyone else too.’ — mooncricket18
