getting frustrated with the fact that there are people whose actions are motivated by the desire to preen their CV! I mean, one volunteers because they want their future employers to think they are saints? And not because they really want to help others? How much work will they then put into the hours they clock; is it going to be a mere summation of the number of hours doing what is termed 'voluntary' while your heart only aims for how it will reflect on yourself? Building a CV may be part of it, and an additional benefit to what you are doing, but explore the primary reason and you'll see the basis for your life.

I've come to realise that those only interested in building CVs and popularity never really do the work; they just want to look like they're doing it, and try to get away at the soonest possible moment. Too judgemental? Well the fruits show the nature of the tree. Not that this is a realisation that has just occured, but seeing the reality makes me sick.
