Those with no talent are the ones who feel the need to display it the most.
I think there is something to say for those people who can get up again and again, and not care who watches them triumph. They could care less about the compliments and views; Because it doesn't matter who is watching, how many, and what they are saying. They get up for themselves, they push because they need to, not because they want to look good. The quest, while filled with glory and titles and ribbons and medals, is strictly internal. It isn't the recognition or acknowledgement that make it all worth while. Its the sheer joy of knowing you have done what you set out to do, knowing that you haven't "made it" anywhere...each achievement is simply one accomplished goal in a never ending journey, of not perfection, but of knowledge. Not of knowing it all, but learning everything you don't know.
