Irrelevant

It’s very common for us as a society to comment on current events, to share where we stand and if we agree with things people say or do publicly.

I didn’t see all of the Grammys simply because it’s not something I’m interested in but I did catch a few things and obviously now everyone is posting and sharing clips.

As I am now processing the amount of agreements and disagreements, the main thing that stood out for me is that the viewpoint of celebrities is really irrelevant. Why? Because they don’t live in the same world as we do.

Celebrities live a lifestyle many of us don’t understand. Some of us work full time or part time, some of us are unemployed, some of us are the caregivers for family members, some of us have no family, some of us struggle to make ends meet, some of us are financially stable.

When was the last time a celebrity you admire work the type of job you do? When was the last time a celebrity you admire struggle the way you have? When was the last time a celebrity was there to help you when you needed that help?

Chances are that percentage is extremely low. Celebrities can say what they want just as you and I can, I’m not saying they need to sit down and shut up, all I’m saying is that what they are living and experiencing is not the same as what you are.

This world is going to fade one day and your life will only be a memory to others at one point. Ask yourself this: what really matters in life? I’m not sure about you, but for me it’s all about Jesus, serving God, serving others, and living a life devoted to God.
