Someone once said that if a person is copying you, it is a flattery. It's because that someone wants to be just like you, wants to do the things you do because they think you are awesome.
Well i thank you for that appraisal. I believe that i inspire. Sometimes i overindulge myself thinking that if it wasn't for me, then you wouldn't be the you you are today, right now, whoever you are. But i don't entertain that self-centered thinking so much.
But i am flattered and honoured that someone- well can't exactly say completely copying me, but imitating i might presume- is following my footsteps. But just don't cross the line between imitating and taking over someone's identity.
Imagine you wear people's masks. It's like that. If you take away their masks, then those people have nothing to wear on their face. It's like you strip away who they are, so to speak. But that's not the worse of it. When you realize that you're just wearing someone else's mask, and when you take it off, you don't have a mask yourself, or you can't recognize your own.
In the end, the one i pity the most, the one who don't know one's own mask.
