Just words without actions = never say

It is drizzling outside. My plan to go for a short run in the morning was crushed, thanks to the rain. Sighed.. I guess by turning to this blog and vent out all my grumbles will be the best thing to do, as for now i guess.

Just a question in passing: Have anyone been disappointed with anyone all because of the actions the person did do not tally with the words promised? How did you react to the person? How come i asked so a question? Because i'm anyone.

Well, don't get too shocked. I think i should get used to it by now. I think it is like part and parcel of life. But, i think that, as for this time round, i'm quite disappointed. Don't ask me why such response appear, although the word 'disappointment' should never appear.

When you give, don't expect for returns. But then, when you contribute so many times in something, when the returns are bare minimum, what would you do then? Contribute in some more and hope for the best? Even the farmers know that if the plot of land cannot produce the expected yield returns, they would buy a new land. Yup, though teachers would not give up students who are not improving their grades, they will be sad for a certain period of time too. Well, i guess i'm still in the vicious cycle.

Have you watched the show "Oprah"? Well, you should if you yet to watch it before. I was watching an epsiode last night and was truly touched by what Oprah Winfrey and her angel's network have done. The teachers in South Africa do not have a stable income, that is, their income is solely dependent on donations collected. But they did not leave their profession, instead, they stay on, fork out money from their own pocket to buy pens and papers for the students, and continue with the teaching. These teachers believe that one day, one of their students might be a lawyer, a nurse, a doctor or someone great. Aren't they great??

Teaching. I guess it is the greatest career in life.
