I have a theory…or maybe just a thought.
Most of us live in constant fear of the judgment of others.
We are terrified that someone will see us and think badly of us.
We work incredibly hard to ensure that no one could possibly think badly of us at all.
We waste so much time trying to be perfect that we forget how to really live life…we truly make “all of the world into a stage”
and we forget that the performance only happens once, and that the curtain will probably close without an resounding applause from the audience.
Not to say that we were not loved or appreciated, but few get to die as rock stars.
Most die as has-beens who wish that they had forgotten about the audience before the audience had forgotten about them.
There is also the fact that few really have an audience at all because we are all so concerned with acting a part for others, that we never take the time to sit in the audience of someone else’s life.
We do not support one another as we should-we do not clap for the scenes of other’s lives because we are so concerned about hearing our own applause.
This needs to stop-we need to stop acting and start applauding.
We need to encourage, promote, and celebrate the acts others.
It is time for a change...who's with me?
