"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.”....for now

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.”

He is a coward who hides himself backstage,

He is of no use for the show?

I wonder why?

 

He has the potential to be great...

Wonder what's holding him back?

Is it the bright lights? The audience?

Is it the fear of making a mistake?

 

But no one is perfect. So why do you care about it?

You'll be great one day

Maybe not today or tomorrow or next year

But your moment of shine will come

 

So until then

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.”

because at the moment, he is not part of the show.

Come back again soon to see him under the spotlight.
