People will never understand the beauty and tranquility that comes with anonymity—the ability to write your own story when you meet someone. When you meet a stranger, you can look at someone and say “Hello, my name is…”, and you can tell them who you are, and what we never seem to realize as people is every time we meet a new person, we are writing our story from the beginning and from that moment in time. What i think one of the many downsides of fame… as my Mom event puts it, ‘you are owned by the world’.
