Especially ...I agree on every actor you named Mark. Especially Elizabeth Taylor. Now I know this will not be a popular or universal opinion- but I think Michael Jackson had the "it" factor. Another fascinating human being is Gary Oldman. Oh and freaking John Malkovich. I can totally relate to your "it factor" theory. You see, as an average looking woman-I see more attractive women than myself daily,I am completely humble and not self absorbed AT ALL, but I have noticed something about myself. I have "it". It is NOT what it is cracked up to be. People latch onto you. Which is great, don't get me wrong, I have fabulous people for friends, but having "it" has baggage. Jealous types loathe me- on sight- despite my sincere effort to befriend them. Insecure people are both fascinated and appalled by a person who isn't phased easily; who has "it". Then there are those who latch on and become dependent. These types are a drain on me; they want to infiltrate my very being. People who have "it" must quickly learn how to filter through and weed out the unworthy. The only good thing about having "it" is you're never lonely. The rest is a burden. It took me 25 years to figure out how to cope with "it". It is hard work to be gracious all the time. I am blessed with this gift of enthralling people, but it is exhausting too.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01060954305931633079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5032155883913171218.post-85902518113125384232010-09-02T18:58:19.670-04:002010-09-02T18:58:19.670-04:00Very interesting and very true Mark! your insight ...Very interesting and very true Mark! your insight is always enlightening!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06033133407132573947noreply@blogger.com
