Maybe I've grown too cynical as I've aged, but I emit an increasingly 
louder chuckle when folks say they want to help people improve 
themselves: I think they need to realize an ever-growing number don't 
want to improve themselves and will bitterly resent any attempt to 
influence them to do so. Those who want to improve themselves will and 
will find any help they need on their own. Those are the ones worth your 
time and aid. :)
