buddah1too - I am really famous with my dogs. They are so happy when I come home.
Honestly, I am not sure if fame is worth it. Just the latest example I can think of here is the soccer great, Diego Maradona, who died last year. He couldn't go anywhere in peace. He struggled for years with substance abuse issues. Many that knew him said that "being Maradona" was often too much for him. Someone also mentioned Britney Spears who currently doesn't have much control over her own life these days.
It seems like you often focus on the past. Maybe a better approach is to see where you can go from here, rather than dwell on things you can't change.
