Fame - Is it Good or Bad?


FAME


Fame is the outcome of all the hard work and time and patience which one commits. Fame comes with and only with dedication towards your work. None becomes famous without giving everything. And I have read and heard about many famous personalities, who tell their tales of journey towards the fame. Everyone story has one thing in common, that is, that all of them didn’t quit even if they faced failures and were 100% dedicated towards their work. I am not here to speak about the ways to be famous or how one becomes famous. Instead, I’m here to bring out or discuss the about the fame and its good side as well the bad side. Basically, more about the dark side of the fame.

So what is fame? The answer lies in the word- famous, but fame for different person is different. For one it can be just getting richer and celebrity status, for someone it may be recognition due to his work in any respective field, and for someone it may be just be able to influence a crowd.  Lucky are those who achieve this fame in the very early stage of their life as not all get the same exposure to fame in life. If we talk about the good part of fame, then we all agree to the fact that fame brings – popularity, money and status and there is no denial to this and who doesn’t enjoys them. These bring power to you. But what about the dark side of fame, why is it that we always tend to neglect the fact that everything has pros and cons. But still we manage to ignore the cons of fame and simply get blown away by the fame.

Now you may ask what is the dark side of a thing so sought for in the world by almost everyone. We have to understand a basic fact, which I have taken from a famous superhero’s comic and which I agree very much to – “With the great powers comes great responsibility.” So there we go, as I said earlier that with fame comes power and with power comes responsibility. So the bad part is that we tend to overlook our responsibility as we get famous. We get blinded by the power and most of get confused and choose the wrong path. The path of arrogance and a belief of being superior then others around you.  Now many of you will not agree with me but I have seen and may be you must have seen them too.  I haven’t tasted the fame and I don’t know what it is to like to be famous but I have heard how someone spoils their own fame by just one stupid act.

In the end I would just like to say that don’t spoil your fame and don’t let it spoil you.
And sorry I am late as I was occupied with some unwanted stuff. Please do share and join for more.
Thank you.

THE REAL ME!!?

WHO AM I? A few days earlier, I was asked whether I am the same person in reality as I portray myself in front of others or I am different when no one is looking? Honestly I would not say that I am exactly the same in front of others as I am in reality, but to some extent my nature is similar in front of others as well as in person. Saying that, I should ask you to listen to me first before judging me on this point. I believe that nature should be handled properly. But first, lets understand what makes or defines our nature. Our nature is made or effected by how we our brought up, our surroundings and also by peers we keep around. And how we behave should be governed by the situation. For example, having a sarcastic behaviour or attitude in a situation which is sorrowful can be harmful. So here, I question whether being oneself in every situation is a good idea or not? Being same in every scenarios, does it really pays off or not? Should we be different in front of others or a g...

The Real Question.....

Is it enough already? What is the one question which we all need to ask once to our self and that is –When is it enough? When is it enough for us? Enough is when we have the sufficient amount to live our life peacefully. But for most of us just having enough isn’t enough. People works hard, putting their soul and heart, just to manage to get enough for them. But in the struggle of getting what one needs, one forgets when to stop. One after another, constantly wanting things, desiring needs, which are not necessary but seem so important for a moment. People are grabbing things like a drowning man to a slab of wood, hastily and without any thinking. This constant need of things after things makes the man greedy and ultimately leads to regretful ending. Now-a-days, our lives revolve around this constant desire. And it is never ending. Once we get something, the satisfaction of getting it makes us to get more of it and yet more and more. We don’t realise when we should...

What causes us to drift away from the real us?

Social erosion Unlike soil erosion, which is removal of the fertile layer of soil due to external factors, social erosion is removal of the good and happiness inside us due to the outside factors. The little part inside us which keeps us motivated for being happy and carefree about the outside world dies slowly when someone around acts like pollutant by being a complete demotivational. Telling things which you often don't realise but when you do you can't stop thinking about it. The most outrageous fact is that when any such thing happens then one starts questioning its own existence and becomes a part of the dull world of unfaithfulness, disturbance and grief. The self is strong enough to handle one or two such person but when the intensity rises, it cause erosion effect within us and leaves us bare. Such people who caused this unwanted situations are the main cause for social erosion.  Social erosion, is according to me, when you loose a part of yourself and turn dark....
