FAME.
I grew up craving it. Intoxicated by it.
They like me. They think I’m cool. They think I’m entertaining. They love me.
I pursued it. I wanted it more than anything.
I would never admit that…
But then… I had it.
A taste. A sample. A little touch of it.
And I found it to be vanity.
And it broke me. It confused me. It made me afraid.
But then… I found something far greater. It was an action.
To serve.
It sounds unappealing.
But to me, there is nothing better.
I want nothing else but to live and die in service of people.
To love and to love them well.
And help. To be the help I wish I had.
To be the embodiment of the help I am blessed and humbled to have received.
Fame. I crave it no longer.
To serve my family. To serve my community. To serve people. And serve them well.
