So Much Love

One time, while Blessed Performer (BP) was in the midst of a family gathering, she suddenly burst into tears, as the circumstances were overwhelming. BP could not contain the emotion, as she realized she was feeling genuine happiness, which was new for her.

When BP was starting out her career, the guiding principle was to strike while the iron is hot. Thus, from the management to her immediate family, BP was booked for engagements. Her events were so many, she had lost count of weekends. Christmas, New Year, and other holidays were work days for BP. She never had a chance to enjoy the mall, as it was her workplace and even out of town trips were still about work. Family gatherings were minimal as her family members were busy minding businesses made possible by BP’s hard work. Only helpers were around to attend to any needs BP might have if she’s between jobs.

BP’s life was not unique, as many other celebrities had undergone the same fate. With only talent at hand, the goal was always to alleviate the family’s standard of living. From a humble rented apartment, talent can lead to many mansions. BP did just that for her family and she continued to work with no end in sight.

Finally, age and realization caught up with BP and she decided to leave her old life. This time, BP was with a family who celebrated birthdays, family events, holidays, etc. as a unit and even the extended families would come over. The gatherings were all fun and everyone was happy. BP was just there to enjoy the company. She did not have to work or perform. After many years, BP was feeling something she had not felt most of her life, and that was the real, sincere love her present family was showing her. BP could not understand how her family could hate the people she’s with right now, who are showing her unconditional love and the essence of a family.

‘All emotions are pure which gather you and lift you up; that emotion is impure which seizes only one side of your being and so distorts you.’ − Rainer Maria Rilke
