Prominent names do make you sit up and pay attention.  There are some who stand out as leaders and shine a special light.  Others look upon them with adulation.  Why is this?  For they see in that other a bit of what they feel they lack.  Why do you have your celebrities?  For you humans do adulate those with many friends, much money, good looks, and popularity.  Is it so enviable to be famous?  You know this is not always so.  Beyond the spotlight oft lies dysfunction and great unhappiness.
 
Shine the spotlight on your own life.  All face dysfunction at times.  All encounter unhappiness.  Projecting your desires on another with supposed success takes you away from your own reality for a while, but you can only escape for so long.  The spotlight you need to shine is inside.  Light up within by turning up the love.  Respond to all with this most potent force and you will have no need to adulate others.  There is no need to seek love and adulation when you know yourself as the source of love.
