Fame> hard to swallow

FAME.... what a weird predicament.

my life seems to keep intersecting with an amazing person whom i adore. unfortunately many people consider him to be famous. what does that mean?

if he weren't "famous" there would be no issue. i could at least be my normal self: strike up conversation and pursue him.
failure would be based upon our own chemistry.

however in the present circumstance, mr Wright has an allegiance of weirdo freaks who are in love with him. there are people who stalk him, who buy him weird gifts on a regular basis. think they know him because they have all his records.

how do we break down that wall. how do we present ourselves as people independent of status or public opinion.

what equally weirds me out is my own existence as an artist. i am his peer. i understand, though not on the same levels, the misconceptions "fans" create between perceptions and actualities. i have experienced people falling in love with me as a performer or worse falling in love with a character i've played and think that they know me.

however i have yet to experience that stopping me from



wait

i am ridiculous.
now that i think about it he has never done anything to make me think otherwise. the only times i've talked to him he has treated me with respect and as a normal person. i'm sorry for wasting your time tomorrow i will find a way to meet this man again and at least strike up a conversation.

i hope all goes well
