Being Lionized is Not for Everyone

Author Lewis Carrol was horrified
At the thought of being lionized
He did not want approval from anyone
Wanted to be left alone to create pure fun

Lionization is for people who want adoration
Who like parades; to be noticed at a celebration.
Lionization is for people who seek attention and praise
Adoration and deference, a narcissist’s egotistical phase.
