The point in being nice

It's gotta be circular logic, cuz there's not always a reward, and people that say there's the reward of feeling that you did something right are past where I am. Sometimes I'm just moved to be nice, and I feel like I may as well not have done it, but then I go and do it again. Maybe I'm a creature of habit, maybe I'm stuck with compassion, and hope for the human race. But either way, for me, the point thus far is the action, and the hope that it wasn't in vain.
