May He help us to humbly draw closer to Him and love one another in truth and harmony. The futility of fame. To some extent, we miss it spiritually when we're looking for some way to have a lasting remembrance by men. I'm not against people desiring some degree of recognition and appreciation for their work, yet the craving for fame, is definitely the wrong direction to go. Our attitude toward fame, recognition, and appreciation usually says something about our thoughts on death.
Fame is a recognition of some achievement by a significant number of people.
I believe that most would like to be remembered after death, at least by their own family. Fame deceives one into believing that a legacy of some sort will provide a way for us to live on in memory if not in actuality. He is the gatekeeper into the eternal realm. If you let your faith govern all of your behavior in this life, you'll be assured of your rightful place in the next. My first inclination is to reject it.
