“Always be a first rate version of yourself instead of a second rate version of somebody else.” – Judy Garland

Be true to yourself.  Why live someone else’s life?  Only you can lead your own life and you can do it better than anyone else!  Our celebrity culture is a breeding ground for people to daydream about leading someone else’s life.  Some think that their problems will magically disappear.  I can promise you that is not the case.  Even if you were to take on the persona of a celebrity, it would come with a whole new set of problems.  Why?  Because we all have them.  All of us.  So next time that you want to act, look, walk, talk, dance, sing, or have any other attribute,  just remember, you would have a whole other set of problems with which to deal.  For me, I’ll stick with my own problems.  I’ve become very familiar with them!
