"Dreams of fame" by Irene
Even in ancient Greek,, fame was considered one of the most valuable things anyone could reach in his entire life: it was what a great deal of men fought and died for.
Time has changed, but not our aspiration to gain prestige and notoriety, it doesn’t matter in what kind of context .In a society where heroes are represented by popular athlets, singers or actors, it is very usual for teenagers to try to emulate them, as symbols of success and richness. Despite the idea they generally have, becoming famous in these specific areas could request hard work and great efforts. It i also true that notoriety does not necessarily last for a long lapse of time and that sometimes is a huge difference beetwen being known and loved by the whole public.
Personally, I would definitely prefer to be successful in whatever I do: I’ would love fame and money to be only a consequence of doing my job the best way I am able to do, with proficiency: and originality. However, the word “success” has so many meanings that would be impossibile to name them all, but the one I elevate is .doing something that makes you feel realized and proud of what you have accomplished

ReplyDeleteTime has changed, but not our aspiration to gain prestige and notoriety (Do you mean this – it’s ‘fame for a negative reason in English!!), it doesn’t matter in what kind of context.

Despite the idea they generally have, becoming famous in these specific areas could require hard work and great effort. It is also true that fame does not necessarily last for a long period of time and that sometimes there is a huge difference between being known and loved by the whole public.

However, the word “success” has so many meanings that it would be impossible to name them all, but the one I value the most is doing something that makes you feel good and pleased about your life, as well as proud of what you have accomplished.
