How many hits can one person take?

These days I have gotten a little frustrated and I am not the sort who can stay frustrated for long...I get a beating and I get up and move on just coz I cant be bothered to stay upset! Its too damn tiring being upset. But what happens when you get beating after beating? You reach a point where you are too beaten to get up! I feel like I am slowly reaching that point this week which is odd for me! I have poured my energy, heart, and time into a few projects hoping to get a great deal of participation back but instead didnt get half of what I expected. I dont think my expectations were very high to begin with either, they rarely are, so I am or was then am again very frustrated! Its not that we got zero participation but the people we expected to participate were nowhere to be found. Our own project lacked participants from our own university, our celebration lacked people from the uni and from the project participants themselves! Then the outing of cultural exchange had almost no Egyptians for the foreigners to exchange ideas with! And it just keeps going downhill from there. I personally enjoyed my time in all these events and I put my all into them regardless but I was just very dissappointed with the lack of enthusiasm from the people who were supposed to be excited and there for us...I just hope this streak doesnt continue any further because the beatings are becoming too much for me to handle.
