honestly though...how can a person truly want to emulate someone they don't really know? How can someone fool themselves into thinking that they want something that (a) they will never get, (b) will not actually improve them as a human being and (c) not really contribute something to society?
all these years, my love and admiration for the music/story of Tina Turner has felt like the most personal thing in the world. It made me feel like she and I were the best of friends, like there was no one more worthy of my attantion in the world. But lately, all of my former feelings have felt cheapened, and I don't know why. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she's in "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous".
As of late, I have decided that it is no longer my #1 dream to sing and dance with her. What would that do for me? Nothing that I can really think about. Celebrity worship will get you no where in life. I mean, yeah, the RSBF thread is ok. Admiring someone for their accomplishments and talent is fine, but revolving your life around meeting celebrities? No, I can't do it any more.
It's like John Lennon said, "Give us some truth". All I'm looking for now is something real. As of this summer, I think, I stopped seeing Jeff and Susan as local celebrities. Now I truly see them.
I need something to hold on to. I want to go down in history, pop history perhaps, for my talent, for my contribution, not because I was famous and pretty and rich. I want to know what it's like to look into someone's eyes and see them for who they are, not what they're supposed to be. Also, I am sick of seeing boys as RSBF types, who won't see me as a real person, nothing but just a fan, or baby girl or whatever.
thank you, i really needed to get that off of my chest.
