What are you waiting for?
In retrospect of Kanye West's outburst at the MTV Video awards and Madonna's self serving "Im the grestest ever" speech; I find myself pondering the world today.
I'm in a quandry to some degree because I am not the sort of self serviing person that most of the rest of the world has turned into. So I am puzzled, and lost when surrounded by people like this, day in and day out. I can not escape the mantra's of others as they bombard me with themselves, subject me to their arrogance and smother me with their existance.
What gives anyone the right to be so self serving, so self absorbed as to not realize that the world around them would not exist without the rest of us? Their existance alone is not what allows the human race to endure. And celebrities..... what a crock. Most of them are not all that talented, just as most of the models arent without their flaws, and so on. It takes producers, directors, screen and songwiriters, musicians and the like, photographers and Paintshop Pro to create the facade that now worships itself.
If Madonna were to have never had a fan, would her own interest in herself alone have made her a star? Would Kanye West's ego have been enough to launch him to superstardom, if he had not one follower but himself (and his mom who liked the paychecks he got)?
It just seems that people might take a moment in the world of self worship that we live in these days to just sit back and do a little peoplewatching. To notice those around us, reach out to them to make them a little more of a connection rather than existing in the microcasm that is our "own little world" to realize that its not just "me, me,me" but US.
