Sure. On the surface it seems so selfish until you look up synonyms for selfish and realize that it is not ego-centric, self-absorbed, self-centered. I do not lack consideration for others, I only lack consideration for myself. Did you ever consider that? I have no ego. I am hardly a me. When I say "I am" a voice inside me wonders "Who is?" I don't even know myself anymore so I couldn't possibly be centered around something I cant even find.
