Today’s question “How important is fame for you?”
Some people live their whole life chasing fame and if they get it, then worrying about losing it and if they don’t get it, then getting depressed about it.
I have never chased fame and don’t care about it. In fact, as much as possible, I try and get away from it. I enjoy attention and spotlight but only when I am in the company of people that I love and have fun with. Everyone else doesn’t matter, so I don’t seek their attention, adulation or approval.
Since the advent of social media, mediocrity is suddenly in limelight. Everyone is famous – in fact notoriety brings more fame. The clicks and view monetising means that as long as you get people’s attention with whatever bizarre thing you may be doing, you are famous.
I am little bit old school that way and still clinging to my values. So I stay away from such antics and if that means living an ordinary life, then so be it. Un-famous is cooler for me than such fame.
