Lay men once said, "The grass is greener on the other side"..but maybe, just maybe..The grass might be fake. As immortal beings we are constantly trying to achieve the next best thing in relation to our lives..which leads to comparison, imitation and the supposed "looking upto" people. In our current era, with the evolution of technology, the birth of social status..everyone seems to think someonelses "grass" so to speak is better just because of what they have. This month, MAY.. has been one revolutionised by self-findings, figuring out my life and setting the table for what I hope is ahead. In all this, I have sought out inspiration from people I sincerely "look upto". Am challenging myself in terms of habit, co nsistency and being content with change. When you see mountains move for others, you compare your growing hills to theirs. I have been there, and sometimes I step back into that wagon .but this month, has house different occurences that are slowly changing my grit and perception. We are all trying to succeed, some fame, some comfort, some want to create a name for themselves, other just want to be happy....all I ask of God is to have enough and be happy. I dislike cliche, but I am going to say this,; "Imitation is limitfation"..when we const and my compare ourselves with other we loose our path trying to follow someonelses..I am by far no where near perfection, I need reminders tok step out of my "looking upto" funk and just be inspired and not aspire to be "just like so and so. For ijnstance, i am hugely inspired by Vincent Vaughn Gaugh's work, his artistry is to die for, I am i inspired by Zaha Hadid and her work in architecture..and believe you me I would want to create work similar to them..but I am no t them, I have a different story and so do they. Their works were born from their individuality and that's what makes them special...so in retrospect build your own success and work that signifies and identifies you as a person.
