"I've got a problem man..."
"What's up?"
"Let's say you're in a race against another guy. You win the race, and you get the prize. Naturally, you feel really great and happy because you won. Plus, the prize was something you have always wanted."
"Yeah, go on."
"While you're rejoicing, you realise that the guy you just beat, needs the prize more than you do. Then you start feeling sorry for the guy, but you still don't want to give the prize to him. You won - you deserve the prize! But then again, the other guy is down, miserable and broken because he lost."
"And, that's how you feel right now? Ouch... Joy and guilt... Not a very good combination."

This should be a very familiar conversation. If it isn't... *shrug*
