Doing the right thing, especially when it puts you at a disadvantage.

Edit: I tell my kids that there are days in your life where the only satisfaction you will have is knowing you did what was right. I know this from experience. Sometimes things go completely to shit and you don't have any control over 99% of it. But what you can control is you and a tiny sliver satisfaction is better than none at all.

Sometimes I wish I could just be the villain, but my conscious has a gun and threatens me with violence if I am not a good boy.
