Corner of Thought!

I see, I see! So would you say that an act is only virtuous if it helps someone? Or can an act be virtuous without the goal being to help?

And, more importantly, is an act virtuous if the person committing the act considers it a good thing while the person receiving the help considers it a negative? Say, a missionary trying to convert someone to their religion, trying to save their atheist soul from hell? Is that virtuous?
