If we worry, we die. If we don't worry, we die. So why worry?

So you were born, and that was a good day
Someday you'll die, and that is a shame
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
And nothing and no one will ever take that away

It is perfectly possible for someone to believe in an afterlife and do good simply out of love for God or their fellow man.

Yes very selfish

Cierra la puerta, ven y siéntate cerca
que tus ojos me cuentan que te han visto llorar.
Llena dos copas de recuerdos de historias,
que tus manos aún tiemblan si me escuchan hablar

How is that selfish? And no, some people do "good" things, just because that's the kind of person they are.

Idiot.

Ummm... no. I do good things because I can do them, and it's nice to do stuff for others... stop being a prejudiced bastard.
