Thinking/ Thoughts.

So I was having a conversation with my mother..more like a conversation with myself because she was falling asleep on our bonding time lol but anyway I was just thinking about things and life. I reminisced for a while about my childhood and how I had such a creative soul. If you knew me back then, you would think I would be Beyonce by now because of the way that I would constantly perform MJ songs for my family. I remember when I would create an art show in my room for my parents, perform plays that I wrote for them and sing Celine Dion songs all day in my basement. Then it hit me. This is the type of things that MJ talked about when he asked "Have you seen my childhood?" He couldn't sit back and think of his greatest and most fun times as just being a child. I'm sure he could say things similar to what I have yet in a more serious tone. Therefore, there wasn't that childlike fun that came along with it. It really saddens me to know that one could miss out on a very important stage in life that really creates who you are as an adult. You learn from your childhood experiences. You learn of friendships, joy, innocence, and pure fun. As a child you are not faced with the problems of the world that you will soon be introduced to.

I also asked the reason why Princess Diana died. She died when I was seven years old and the first time I heard of her is when they reminded me for weeks straight that she had passed away. My mother replied "In a car accident was it?"and I concluded,"She was running away from the paparazzi wasn't she?" and my mother replied,"yeah." Wow. I said out loud that I would never want to be apart of the paparazzi or media that rips peoples lives apart. I refuse to be like those blood sucking leeches that feed off of ordinary people's every move. "Stars" are regular people who are more successful. So perhaps we shouldn't call them stars. Do they really shine? I think that once people are taken away from their "normal" lives, automatically the light in them fades when they come face to face with the limelight. I feel that we should applaud each other. How "human" is it to publicize and ridicule people of their wrong doings or of the things that they never did! Why do we feed into such garbage? Normal people live their life much worst starting with the lifestyle of the paparazzi. I have realized that I shouldn't cry or go insane when I meet famous people because at the end of the day, they lye in bed just as I do. Sure that bed might be worth more than my entire home lol but you get the point.
We ALL deserve our privacy at one point.
