Pondering life, painting primates with a blunt.I watched Netflix - Bob Ross documentary.. all I could think was: WTF? This life of fame is not, all it’s cracked up to be.
How do the people that have his ‘name rights’ not know, that’s just wrong. I’m not going to buy BOB Ross anything, not even the Bob Ross chia pet. It was an unhappy ending imo, although Bob did do what he loved most, painting & inspiring others… and continues to do so.
Creative geniuses don’t often get the recognition they deserve.. Bob was not the first nor will he be the last.
Look at the life of Nikola Tesla for one example. There's some serious monkey business going on.
Currently, entertainer -Taylor Swift lost some of the rights to her creations recently songs, videos and more.
It’s got to be a harsh lesson for many and hopefully an awakening for others who are striving for fame & fortune.
To my dogs - I am a rockstar!! That’s good enough for me. :)
It reminds me of Matthew 16:26 - 26 What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?
Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
Do these people that profit from others taking names, fame & talents have a soul? I don’t know.
At least more are becoming educated of how the games are being played and will better protect themselves.
Many still, don’t give credit to the OG creator. ;D So - here’s hoping.
Give thanks for those who continue to inspire & create & share - making all our lives richer.
