I’m no superstar

   Posted by: WhiRL   in Colors of Life

Have you ever wanted to be famous? Be recognized for your gifts? I have. It was quite recent that I had a spell where I felt like I was nobody and that my life and gifts were just so unappreciated. In fact I feel like I have no gifts at all. Don’t ask me why I felt that way but I certainly did. Personally I have been finding it hard to take it in because there are a huge amount of people looking down on others. I just don’t get why artists are so arrogant.

Oh well my dreams of being a superstar is often thwarted by the fact I just want the recognition without the fame and fortune. Maybe I will have to die like our dear Vincent. One day a song may be written about me that is as beautiful as ‘Starry, Starry Night’.

Oh well today, I finally get the feeling of what a green screen video shoot feels like. Very interesting. In the pic you see my boss working on his script. Behind is the green screen so we can add visual effects perhaps? Make it Star Wars like hahaha. No la just joking.

I just had three lines to say. But again a problem arose. I am supposed to smile and talk. I did but smiling made my eyes too small. Sigh……looks like I am not photogenic. That means stardom is far from what I can achieve. I’m probably one that will die and nobody will remember my face. Hahaha. As long as I am remembered then I guess it’s ok.

Still I know I’m no superstar nor am I meant to be one. I just hope that I can live with my ego bruised and pray that God will take pride in this broken vessel.

Hey Superstar! LOL! Everyone is a superstar on their own because they have a story to play out on their own in real life. ;)

Leon said:

Yeah but I don’t agree that we are all actors and actresses on a stage. I believe though we’re part of the greatest story ever told

You don’t have to be a superstar to be remembered. I think in my opinion you’ve impacted quite a number of people that will certainly remember you. And I believe yr God’s creation and you will certainly shine brightly for Him . And I also believe we’re all superstars in His eyes, even though we may be a broken vessel.
So you are a superstar in many other ways , not the fame and fortune kind my friend !!

Leon said:

Think like what leh. I didn’t even write it in a negative sense. But I think artists can really really relate to that feeling
