Now what I am going to say next is going to really shock a lot of you and 
some of you will not be shocked (Mama Mac). I try not to sit around and say 
Looky what I did. (I do still look at my banners with pride but that is 
another story) I am not here for the awards I do what I can do. I pick what I 
am willing to accomplish. When I do pick something to do I do it with heart 
and soul... I am an Idealist and a dreamer.But I never do it for the awards 
and I believe that other that see it and want to recommend me will if not 
that is part of it. I will not say I did this for this award. I might want it 
we all do to some extent but I will not bring attention to myself to get the 
award. If you do things only to get awards you will burn your self out or 
become very bitter. I do things for the reasons I believe are right. 

Being that I was past Hospitaller of this group..... I do look at this 
question and if you are new this is a totally logical question. I hope all 
different answers help you to understand. Remember we all play this game in a 
different way you have to find your way.
