I make it a point to avoid the media-created famous or infamous personalities. Any encounters I have had with them have been purely accidentalpassing by in airports or catching a glimpse as they zoom past in motorcades. I’m not one to gawk at celebrities or chase after autographs. That said, I deeply admire those who contribute directly to improving human livesnot just financially, but through hands-on efforts. I look up to CEOs who sit down with developers to spend long nights debugging, brilliant surgeons who perform life-saving operations free of charge for those in need, the young volunteer picking up litter from beaches, and the sanitation workers risking their health to clear our clogged drains. These are the true heroes of our world, the real celebrities.
