I often wonder when people talk so much about famous people, what are they thinking exactly? I wonder what the famous people feel about themselves and their life? Does it get tough when they try to have a normal life and have to have someone there to help them with fans? Are they able to do regular things in life?
I am always thinking about a famous persons life, what do they do for fun? How do they feel about people telling their lives whether true things or not? People always trying to be them, what do they think about that? Do they get on the computer and look at things and wonder why people feel the need to pretend to be them? Do they think that the so called regular people are lucky? Do they want to know anyone outside of the stardom world? Who are they compared to people that are not famous? Who are they for real? Do actors and actresses get confused about who they are apart from their characters? Do fans ever make them overwhelmed?
I think I am a bigger fan of those that are real, like people with disabilities, they know who they are and are ok with it. Others seem to have a problem with them, but I think its got more to do with others being scared and not understanding them, or not even wanting to, again it comes down to what is and who is normal? Maybe everyone else has a disability and its blindness and ignorance to the fact that everyone is in this world together and needs to learn to live together better.
I also think that even non-famous people seem to have a problem with who they are, which is why they seem to think they need to pretend to be someone else, for some unknown reason. I believe everyone is special in their own unique way. We should except who we are as an individual and if there’s things we don’t like about ourselves then we as an individual need to work on changing that, can’t depend on someone else to do it for us, and we can’t think that pretending to be someone else is going to change that, if anything else it will make it worse. They say “you hurt the ones you love” but in reality you can and will hurt people you don’t even realize your hurting.
Then again I have to ask what normal really is? I often think that the heroes are those in homes struggling to make it with or without families, and that somehow get through the toughest of times. The single Mom doing the best she can with her kids whether she works and takes care of them, or stays home and takes care of them. The single Dad who works and takes care of his kids, or stays home and takes care of them. Two parents who work and take care of their kids, or even when one works and one is home. I know they weren’t really lying when they said parenting is the toughest job, you think about mistakes you can make and try to fix if you make them, you have mistakes you can’t afford to make and some you know are just going to happen. You always would like to make their life more than what yours was or not make the same mistakes your parents made with you, you find yourself saying or doing things with your kids you may have said you’d never do or didn’t understand why your parents did. Some times you learn a lot more from your kids then you even thought possible, and they don’t even know their teaching you, but we shouldn’t ignore it.
