I wont lie to you, I have also been bitten by the reality show over the past few years.
People going for their dreams, careers, losing weight, showing off their lavish lifestyles, chasing stardom,blah blah blah…
so here I [and many like me] was thinking that if I could just get into one of those shows then my life would be perfect and I would have my life long dream. Don’t forget that a few years ago we didn’t have these ‘shows’ and people ‘chased their dreams’ the good ol’ fashioned way. Through hard work, education and ‘moving up the ladder’
And then today I saw somebody I know on TV, and thought..well asked myself if I wanted to be in their position if I could. My answer [to myself] surprised as well pleased me [don't worry, I talk to myself every now and then]. I know I don’t want to be in their shoes. If anything, I think I’ve had my head in the clouds for too long now. and in fact ,I think I’m on the right track.
I think its about time I stopped all the blame and bitterness.
My mom, being the wise woman that she is, asked me the other day what it is i want. I’m yet to find an answer for that. She said I should know what it is I want and work for it. It may be the simplest advice that anyone can give but for someone like me, it may be the best advice anyone has ever given.
and now to think of what it is I want…hhmmm
