Popular?

in #life6 years ago

Popular? No. Age has a funny way of showing us all what is important, and popularity doesn't stand up to the test of time. I used to fantasize about all the people who would show up at my funeral, and this is no longer a thing I think about, except perhaps in hindsight of how silly a thought it was.

It's a matter of foresight, I suppose. Seeing the world around you change as the years go by, and seeing the inevitable occurrences of life; noting these things and thinking about how it will affect us all someday. Popularity is a fleeting thing.

A striving after wind, considering just what sort of upkeep is required to maintain it... a sort of thing that gets you stuck doing the same thing over and over again, lest the popularity fade, or people believe you to be inconsistent. A flip-flopper. Couldn't stick to his guns. This leaves little room for one to consider changing one's mind, or one's ways.
