Pop artist, Andy Warhol is oft quoted as saying that someday everyone will have their fifteen minutes of fame. It is very human to believe that we will eventually have some great tragedy or some significant triumph in our lives that is worthy of everyone’s attention – even if it is only for one brief shining moment. This is a false pride that popular culture has always encouraged. Even as far back as when Greek mythology was the religion of the day, stories about encounters with the Gods were very popular. If you had such a meeting your reputation would be great. People aspired to this in hopes of being privileged enough to share such a story over and over again. Telling our story is in fact one of the oldest and most common traditions of all humanity. So being a faithful witness is certainly nothing new. It is a spiritual skill that has always been important to develop.
