Never give up; you never know until you try.
I recently caught part of an episode of the game show "Family Feud" that started me to thinking about fame & fortune. The question called for the contestants to name a celebrity they were completely tired of hearing about and who they wish would just go away. The answers included people famous for being famous and those whose most recent activities have made them infamous for being in legal trouble due to substance abuse.
I've observed before that it seems all a person has to do to be rich, famous, or both in today's world is to have a complete lack of self-respect--to consistently do outlandish (illegal, immoral, or both) things & be sure that it's reported to as many people as possible.
I hope I'm never so starved for attention that I resort to getting it in such a negative, self-destructive way. I hope I'm never referred to as someone who people wish would just go away. . . unless they wish I'd go away because God is using me to try to turn their attention toward Him, but that's another post for another day.
I think you need to post about that last part sometime!
ReplyDeleteMy husband said the same thing the other day. It's a complete lack of self respect (and morals) along with a tendency to be an idiot that gets the attention.
Hope you're doing well, Jackie!
