Am I really selling my soul to the devil?

So much has been said. Good stuff too.
Myoko, or Yokomi, or Meagan, what do you prefer these days?
But besides that. I for years had dreams of climbing the corporate ladder and achieving fame.
I grew up doing theatre and thought I could make it in the acting business. But I loved the work behind the scenes, like the business of entertainment and broadcasting. But even more so I craved the power of producing entertainment. So then I said I want to be the Chairman of the CBC (that worked with my patriotism).
A few years later into my mid-20s. I am not much older now. I realized a person's life is not about fame or power and the immediate gratification that comes with them and makes them so attractive. Those things are immaterial, abstract, just ideas given by others. Life is about building something that provides for you and validates who you are in this world. That something can be the skills and talent of music or the production and property of a business. It really is about following your dreams, because our dreams are about making something that doesn't yet exist, but we know it can if we try. Because I came to that realization I gained confidence and greater happiness.
You are beautiful and expressive, many people on this forum are. Those are things the world will always accept.
