So often, seeking excitement and change, many succumb to the glitz and glamour of the new. Then they realize that novelty does not necessarily mean better.

We live in a world of choreographed settings, of actors and actresses strutting their wares on TV, on the runway, or on stage…each appearing for a transitory period, only to be soon replaced by another cast – and so it goes on from one episode to the next.

Friendships based purely on flashing neon lights, sex appeal, and popularity, often parallel the great theater all around us – they last a while, then are cast aside when the glow is no more.

Better to stay the course with those who’ve proven to be true and trusted, who, whether they have star appeal, bombshell looks, a ritzy aura, or not, will be with you all the way, as you will be with them – even when the tent has folded and the show has moved on.
