Want To Be Famous?
Posted on 17 February 2018
Fame has been the ruination of many a fine soul.
First, humility falls away.
Then the capacity to listen withers as their every word is heard and clung to like gems of supreme wisdom.
Then empathy shuts down as the whole world becomes their adoring mirror.
Soon the person within slowly dies as their god-like image takes over.
They do not concern themselves with responsibility for we have made them free from the consequences of wrong-doing.
And so the public transmutes human gold into lead.
If we the people respected ourselves and loved one another more, would we need make such terrible human sacrifices?
In peace and kindness,
Katherine
