Doing for the sake of doing

It's amusing, really.

For some folks to pen articles telling the world of how they've saved lives, changed the world, etc. All from doing something that they have to do, or found themselves forced into circumstances that dictate them to do what they do.

Well, I guess one can argue that they took lemons out of Life and made lemonade. But to me, being proud of something is when it's accomplished through passion. Through dedication. Through perserverence. Through believing in oneself.

So, no I can't say that I agree to certain articles singing praises for individuals who do what they do because they are thrown into the circumstances. I cannot react to the article with a "Wow!". The best I could give is a hmpf and a if-i-have-nothing-nice-to-say-i-better-shut-it smirk.

So, hmpf.
