The difference between people comes down to the fear that they feel in their own hearts. I believe that everyone would love to think of someone else first I really do! However, we become enmeshed in our human frailties and hold onto to the expectation that the universe will not care for us when we let go. No one seems to realize that there is always a net. Clutching to our imaginary life rings does not provide the safety we think it affords. If we are to “drown” that fate will arrive whether we put safeguards in place or not. More than likely it’s not our turn to lose something we think is important for our emotional survival because it wasn’t ours in the first place.

Thinking of others before ones self is as natural to some of us as breathing. Others seem to see it as a chore. Perhaps it is enmeshed in "Faith", in believing that God is there for us no matter what. "LET GO AND LET GOD" He will protect you.
