Scandals are common among famous people. No one cares about an obscure individual nor is concerned about damaging his reputation. The Biden-ukraine conspiracy theory is an example of scandal that's dug to destroy what one has built over the years. Being famous comes with a lot of responsibilities and one of which is, pretending to live your best in the eyes of society and avoiding being judged for every action that you or your family make. I choose to be unknown, it's more peaceful when you live in a world that doesn't know you exist. You do everything that you want to do with no eyes monitoring your movements with the hope of seeing you fail.
The issue with famous people is that they no longer enjoy privacy. The daily trend on social media nowadays is centered on celebrities, and this only exposes them to more danger. Every of their words are criticized positively and negatively and they live in fear daily. Famous people are like those who build their houses on a hill where everyone can see, every rain and wind first hits them before it comes down to those living in the lowland. Sometimes the scandal that becomes their nightmares may not be directly about them but those whom they're related to.
Unlike the famous Man, living as a lowly man in my castle allows me to be the man I want to be with no criticism. I can mingle among the people and live the life I want to live with no fear of being judged. No one blames me for the sins of my relatives or anyone that I know. I can be the real me with no pretense, visit any place with no one monitoring my movement, and still enjoy my comfort of loneliness. Being unknown makes me powerful in my own space.
Another demerit of being famous is being surrounded with both real and fake friends. You never know who's true and who's stabbing you from behind. Famous people are known to have a lot of friends that aren't friends indeed, they may celebrate millions of friends when indeed the real friends may just be 10 among the millions. Advice from the several fake friends may even make you lose the few true friends as pride and arrogance come in from their deceptive praises. Ever seen a poor farmer living on the outskirts of a town? They're mostly happy with the few friends they have, because they enjoy true friendship. I choose to be unknown, I choose not to live famous, just to enjoy things that are true and real.
