In this French monologue, the speaker embraces selfishness as a positive, self‑defining trait. He argues that investing in oneself brings personal happiness and, paradoxically, makes him more available and willing to help others. This selfishness is presented as a conscious, voluntary choice—not driven by guilt or obligation—but by a genuine desire to extend a hand. He contrasts two forms of generosity: one performed out of duty or obligation, and another that stems from a deliberately generous form of selfishness, highlighting the profound difference between the two.
