When I feel down in the dumps about so many celebrities I know dying,
I remind myself
that this is because I’m fortunate to KNOW of a lot of celebrities.
My grandparents might have known only one hundred or so celebrities. Those were mostly movie stars, TV stars, singers, political leaders and sports folks.
I know of THOUSANDS of celebrities. There are the movie stars, TV stars, singers, political leaders and sports folks, yes, but there are MANY more of them.
My grandma had ONE TV channel.
I have a thousand or more TV channels.
She listened to ONE radio station.
I have thousands of radio stations featuring artists from all over the world.
Being Canadian, she knew the name of the President of the US and that was about it.
I know of Senators and Congress people.
I also know of streaming stars, YouTube stars, influencers, and so many other people.
My world is much bigger.
And I know of a LOT of people. So, of course, I will lose a LOT of people.
This is still sad but it is a fortunate place to be.
