Could you imagine all the hassle you’d have to endure if you were adored?, you wouldn’t have a moment to yourself, you couldn’t just lounge about in any old gear for fear of photographers with super zoom lens, waiting to nab the adored with no teeth in or with their wigs off.

And worse still, you could not enter your local pub anymore nor go for a quiet walk, you couldn’t get the door opened in the mornings from all the begging letters, your friends would become mouchers forever bumming off you, the press would go scanning your history trying to dig up scandal, then there’s always the fear of some nutcase kidnapping a family member, etc. etc., you may say goodbye to your freedom that’s for sure.

No thanks, give me anonymity every time and to hell with adoration, fortune, and fame.

Re: Adoration

Why do folks not adore someone else not themselves, that is strange, the assumption.
