So there's this friend on mine on Facebook who calls himself 'Maestro'. I found it rather weird, so I asked him what's with the Maestro name. Apparently he's a maestro of some sort. I found that quite lame, that's until...
Until I realized, maybe he's right. He's really right about the whole maestro thing. He's no choice but to be what he knows best - him. In this plastic world, full of people being other people, being yourself is not enuff. You got to have Beyonce's hair, Brittney Spears' nose, Brad Pitt's cheekbones,... People are in a constant hurry to be someone else, act like someone else, so much so that they're forgetting to be just themselves.
The saddest part is that they're just making the whole thing more miserable and impossible for themselves. Nobody asked them to be just like the celebrities. Nobody asked them how Tyra Banks they can get. And nobody's grading. So just quit the whole thing and be you. There's no better person to be you than you. Just as J-Lo can only be a good her, so can you also be a good you. There's no better you than you, be a maestro at being you.
