If my writing were to blow up, I don’t know what I would do you know. A little recognition here and there is cool and all, but truth be told I’m kind of scared to be famous. I only say it this way because with the way I’m progressing it seems inevitable/I could work hard enough to reach that result.
One of the reasons why I’m afraid of fame is people being in your business. When you’re a public figure, despite the fact that there are elements of your life displayed, people believe that they can add their little 2 pence wherever they feel. I personally am just not comfortable with that, if you comment on my personal life it will get personal. Question is though, would fame change me? Now for some insight unto my character let’s take a trip back to year 6. It was coming to the end of the year after sitting my very difficult SAT’s, and I was facing the departure of many people I’d known for about 8 years, but you know what I said to them? “I’m not going to be friends with any of you in secondary school” I’m telling you lot’s I’m beyond my generation, for some reason I believed the people that surrounded me were not of my intellect and were childish, very rich of me to believe when realistically I was the exact same. I think this scenario very clearly displays my personality. I’m very blunt, unfiltered, and at that point I was very open to meeting new people, but now it’s more of if you don’t have a purpose our friendship is purposeless? Basically I just don’t like to engage in things I deem pointless. I am the way I am for a reason though, I don’t like to sugar coat things just because it’s much easier to rip the band aid off for everyone. No matter the situation, you’ll move past it. But to answer my question I don’t actually believe fame would change me. I may be perceived as different though once I start to receive opinions I don’t remember requesting for, but I think we can all agree on this no? Now, in terms of all the streams of revenue I’d like to explore, I think I’d be satisfied with being famous for all or each individual one, each pathway holds a special place in my heart. Money Or fame? - Miriam.

I have a love hate relationship with talking about love, I think the more I talk about it the more likely it is to escape me but nonetheless, here we are.
I want to start off with the pointless talking stages that never go anywhere, which is never usually the fault of me of course. I believe something very manipulating that has happened to me is being drawn in, becoming attracted to someone but not just to their face but their attitudes towards life. Then being dropped. Now this has happened to me in variations, being ghosted, drifting apart although it’s not your desire to, forceful changes in behaviour the list goes on. So I think I have a little experience. Getting to know people over social’s is very controversial, and the power of social media allows you to appear disconnected to whomever you want, for however long you want. I also believe this isn’t fair. I think once you’ve expressed interest in someone, communication is very important and so you can’t just up and leave when you feel like it. Yet I do think this generation’s view of love is filled with entitlement and very unrealistic expectations. People see celebs and in general people not of the same calibre as them, and believe that this is what a woman/man should attain or aim to attain in order to deserve them. Things like excessive money and toxic relationships is what the majority desire these days. I will not dispute the fact that without a little bit of toxicity I can’t fathom why I’m in that relationship - a little toxicity makes a bond healthier in my book - but either way normalise proportionally healthy relationships and ruling lots of money out as a necessity, because it really isn’t necessary especially from a religious perspective. As well as all these things it’s also very important to learn when to let go. Red flags are real, pay attention to them. I’m not saying be one of those girls that constantly brings up a man’s flaws and then goes “ahaaa red flag” as if it’s a joke, I just mean if you see something or feel a type of way keep a note of it so further down the line you don’t invalidate your feelings because you don’t remember why you felt a way. That’s how you trap yourself. Acknowledge that if they are right for you, they will be back but not everyone that comes back is right for you. Within the younger generation or “Gen Z” I think something we need to realise is we’re maturing together. Investing in relationships at feeble ages is actually very dangerous, and so either party needs to take into consideration that you’re growing together. Not everything will be perfect. This doesn’t mean all behaviour is inexcusable, even though you may still be kids in some people’s eyes the decision you’ve made to be together comes with responsibilities and repercussions. With all that being said I don’t believe love is for me, stay safe out here guys - Miriam. |
