Quick Asides:This is it. Everything that was and is for the past 8 months has come to this. Every failure and success recorded in a writing. The deadline I've set myself is the 28th of October. Now would be a great time to cheer me on. The thesis is starting to come together. I can only hope it makes some sense.

Depends on what kind of recognition. Fame is simply to be well known. To be recognized, does not depend on numbers. If I recognize you to be a good man (not that ‘good man’), is that not enough?

as far as recognition would take me.

IMHO, recognition and fame often go hand in hand. The difference is that recognition is a positive means of attaining fame, whether you want to or not.
Since it’s a positive thing and should not undermine one’s principles or moral/ethical judgment, then I can only agree with minishorts…

Fair enough I guess…that would mean that it wouldn’t be wrong to try and stretch the recognition for a good deed as far as you can possibly stretch would it? I guess the real question would be, how thin is the line between earning recognition and seeking fame?

depends how much recognition you want. if you’re happy with a thank you, a mention in the credits page, an acknowledgement link or a teh tarik kurang manis at a mamak stall…that’s as far as you need to go.
i wouldn’t stretch the recognition at all. i’m happy enough if people even realise that i had the choice to not help them, but i did. not many people do.
did i go out of point?
