Am I pretentious, self-centered, haughty?
I've been a poster here for a good 5 years and I think that my online persona is probably somewhat close to IRL. Add to the fact that I have contacted a good number of you offline for awhile - Mike, Boar, EF, Tree etc.
I find it strange that someone would try to pin me to the above traits, I'm wondering if I ran enough benefit races, volunteered enough at museums, shelters, charities and dontations over the recent years - granted I don't talk about these things, since my religious influences make me want to "give with one hand so that the other hand doesn't notice"
This year, I've run a race to raise a little money for a certain disease, participated in a social benefit activity against domestic violence and worked for a food drive all while actively serving my country, with little free time. These things were done on my own and off duty. Granted, I like to go out and have fun too.
With the year end approaching, I think its good to do a little reflection. This is the first time for me to sit down and really list the things I've done for the betterment of others.
I guess if others don't see it, it doesn't count? or does it?
