Pause for Thought
Writer and Musician, Jahnavi Harrison.
I was browsing around on the internet the other day when I should鈥檝e been working 鈥� as you do 鈥� and I saw the video of Oprah Winfrey being presented with a lifetime achievement award at the Golden Globes. I watched her get up on stage and give a genuinely rousing speech 鈥� in that voice that somehow, even though I never used to watch her much, is so familiar to me.聽 She spoke passionately of her humble upbringing, her aspiration throughout her career to explore and empathise with the human experience, and her position now as a woman of extraordinary power and influence.聽 聽 聽 聽 聽 聽
The camera kept cutting to the different faces in the room to acknowledge their reactions 鈥� the who鈥檚 who of contemporary entertainment seemed honestly moved, and I was feeling the same. As cynical as I can be about that world, I found something touching in their standing ovation and obvious delight and admiration. Whether you鈥檙e a fan of her or not, it鈥檚 undeniable that she鈥檚 used her fame and success to try and uplift, inspire and encourage.
Fame is such a funny thing. Despite the cautionary tales of those at the top, its allure never seems to be dimmed and in these social media connected times, it can seem more easy than ever for any of us to achieve.聽 I heard about a survey done recently amongst a large amount of primary school children. When asked, 鈥榃hat do you want to be when you grow up?鈥� a large majority of them said famous. Most couldn鈥檛 give a clear answer as to why.聽 聽 聽 聽 聽
The Bhagavad Gita counts fame as one of six categories of opulence, including beauty and wealth. It teaches that the opulence that comes to me in this life, is based on my karma, or previous actions, both in previous lives and in this one. That means, if I鈥檓 meant to be famous 鈥� or anyone for that matter 鈥� it will come. No matter how unlikely it seems, circumstances can change in a moment. What I鈥檓 thinking about in starting this new year is how to get in the habit every single day of finding opportunities -聽 just like Oprah -聽 to uplift, inspire and encourage others. I think that鈥檚 a legacy I鈥檇 like to leave behind, whether five million people know about it, or just five.
