You may think what's important is "that people matter" and therefore you do, but you don't alone.. You'll find quite logically that other people matter.. You are special tho even if you are not the only one. Sound familiar?
I got this off of other people. It seems to be a stereotype unfortunately in nice people of more dynamically mixed European ethnicity.
Look at it this way. It could be feasible to say you took care of the needs of 1 person. Someone else is gonna get something, too, and it's not just 1 other person.
I had an epiphany on this topic but forgot how to put it and recall it back.
Even if other people share your interest, it should not ruin yours.
I can't see every black person deserving to take from others.. I can't see every white person being seen as "whole" in spirit..
