ThoughtsOnHigherExpectations


it was recently brought to my attention that some say Chris Brown and others of his generation aren't inspiring others in a realm outside of entertaining...my point being they are ALL entertainers there to entertain...period...spiritual leaders lead spirits...teachers teach....entertainers entertain...singers sing...musicians play instruments....singers/musicians inspire to sing and play instruments...spiritual leaders inspire souls...teachers inspire knowledge...parents are the only Hybrid in this equation as they should be...as Charles Barkley so succintly put it "i'm not a role model, i'm a basketball player..parents are supposed to be the role models"...EWF, Santana were musicians 1st..became inspired by spiritual leaders 2nd...inspired others spiritually afterwards thru transcended music...and to be judge for not fulfilling criteria outside of your job description...is unfair to say the least( my favorite comeback line is: "that's not in my job description")...my thing is that unfortunately we want people to fill a void with HigherExpectations...a entertainer is supposed to do more than just entertain...a professional ballplayer is supposed to do more than just play ball...no...politicians are supposed to do more than they do...community leaders are supposed to do more than they do...parents are supposed to do more than they do...these are the realms in which HigherExpectations are warranted...[in my opinion]
