What’s fame for?
The above quote resonated with me and prompted me to think and research more on this inevitable self-esteem spoiler: fame.
Many of us, at some point in our life, would have wanted to become famous. If you are an artist or in the performing arts domain, you would definitely have dreamed about the limos and the crowd waving at you when you get out of the limo.
In the internet age, being famous can be increasing the numbers on social media channels. However, we hardly ask this question - What’s fame for? This is something worth pondering about especially since we are living in the most crowded creative time ever. We are not entitled to attention or leverage anymore.
This calls for a redefinition of fame.
