Projecting Quotes

Sometimes in life there's no problem and sometimes there solution. Within this space - between these apparent poles - life flows.

Rasheed Ogunlaru

Being idolized and being torn down felt oddly similar. They both made me feel alone.Friendship and trust should be earned, and when you're famous, people seem to want to give them to you whether you've earned them or not, and it felt dishonest to me. Fame was not real. It was all a projection—fame made me a blank canvas that people projected their love, lust, troubles, self-worth, and desire upon. Fame and power do not change us, they amplify us.
