Popularity Kill The Real You

I know exactly what you mean and you make some very good points. I've known a number of what I'd consider great people and good friends, and at a certain age when we all start doing different things some people decide there better, become obsessed with how they look and pose for likes on facebook (which really annoys me). The fact of the matter is that deep down the person will be in there its just how to get that person back out, some people really do lose themeselves in themselves if that makes sense. With that said there was a brief period where I was going down a similair road myself but not to the point that I forgot who I was and who my friends were. Thankfully I realised that I could make friends by staying true to myself and I wouldn't want it any other way :)

Thanks for this discussion, see we all are born on this earth, but all are not equally lucky in all respects, some are lucky, lead very good life, some are not; it all depends upon our past karma and present deeds too. We should live honestly and die peacefully.

Let's say that the book on which I'm presently working becomes a best-seller... If anything changes about me, it will be having the ability to spend on more things that I'm not able to now. It won't be about changing my personality in order to fit my new image. I'm going to still be the same person that I am now, and the last thing I want to do is to turn into a snob. If I were to change to fit some kind of image that others might be expecting from me, I would be cheating myself by losing myself.

Some people really change when they are surrounded with big time or popular people as if they're the real superstars- although they are just riding other's shoes. Duh- these kind of people are users/rider and social climber who thinks they're not stepping on the ground anymore. Too bad, the air gets inside their heads and made them float :xx

I know that there are people in youtube which now became too famous with hundreds of thousands of subscriptions on their channels that are now changed personality and others that didn't yet! But yes, popularity changes you for sure because when people get attention to you, you feel like a god!
