Nature expects us to grow, and we do so according to a predefined program. We don't choose to become a 30 year old person, we develop 'naturally'. Just as we can't choose to remain a 10 year old child.
In this same way, nature is pushing us to develop from selfishness to bestowal. We're expected to grow. There is no coercion in spirituality (Quran 2:256, Sahih), we're expected to develop, to come to this 'naturally' on our own.
