I fell in love with reality.



Nobody was born great.. everything in life takes practice in order to perfect. But sometimes I wonder why we worship celebrities? they were once in our very same shoes (whether they were bought at Payless or Jimmy Choos). God created us all the same, so what makes us different?

I began thinking while I was working out today.. what about celebrities.. and if I were a celebrity what kind of celebrity would I be? I often wonder about how a movie star really is in life.. like is their whole life one big ass show? do they have some sort of face they must maintain for their "fans" or... do they just not give a damn..?
The other day I was reading a magazine article on Sara Jessica Parker aka Carrie from Sex and The City, and it was an interview posted on the August issue in the Vogue magazine. She relentlessly admits that her life is nothing like the life that our esteemed "Carrie" lived. She isn't this crazy shoe fanatic that is obsessed with fashion. Though she respects fashion; she isn't obsessed per say. Sarah has an up-coming film entitled "I don't know how she does it", this movie is as she says "has the closest relation to my real life". Needless to say, after reading the article I fell in love with the reality of reality... you know? I LOVE LOVE LOVE Carrie from Sex and The City, but for some reason Sarah was really Carrie to me not vice versa. She's human! she has a husband and kids.. its absolutely beautiful... the fact that her life doesn't revolve around shoes and an overwhelmingly obsessive pattern of fashion makes her real life the more intriguing.


Like Sarah Jessica, I like to look at the real lives of people and see them as human, not just a robot on TV with "glory". Not that I don't feel like celebrities aren't great or they don't have talent or anything... I'm just saying, why be a groupie?

I just think, we should live and do what makes us happy... & if you want something bad enough; go get it. (just like celebrities did before fame)*
