We often share with pride the successes of our brethren; the grades
they get, the universities they are accepted into, their academic
qualifications, their jobs and their wealth. But how often do we
highlight the accomplishments of those who shine by doing the right
thing; how often do we tell our children about those who do not
worship at the altar of material success, but toil to make the lives of
others richer?
Not only should we celebrate these unsung heroes, we need to; for
we need to be inspired differently; we need to aspire to be better
learners, not just better grade grubbers; better humans, not just
better earners; kinder, more co-operative citizens, and not just civil
society criers asking -- for every problem, what more can the
government do (knowing full well that the governments impotence
and inefficiency will result in more corruption if it attempts to do
more).
