Growing up I would hear people say they wanted to be “rich and famous”. I would wonder do they go hand in hand, is one exclusively part of the other. Of course, as an adult, I learned the truth that, one could be rich and not famous and one could be famous and not rich. I could never understand the famous part. I can see the appeal to wealth. However, fame is not something that I see as beneficial. I enjoy anonymity too much to want fame. Being “seen” is not my cup of tea. However, being heard, that I do take pleasure to a degree. I do not necessarily mean audibly being heard, more like my thoughts being digested.
