Amidst all the cheering , compliments and applaud for becoming the next Paulo Coelho , Ansel Adams , Richard Avedon or da Vinci , what we forget is that we have become the next somebody . Somebody which the whole world has known . Somebody who has been appreciated and applauded for their pieces of work .
We have failed to establish ourselves as a whole and tried all along to be the next somebody . The personalities whose' hats we try to don are themselves the ones who havn't doned anybody else's hat but their own .
What if Pablo Picasso aimed to become the next da Vinci ? What if Jackie Chan aspired to be the next Bruce Lee ?
Had they done that , the world would have lacked Picasso's unique artistic talent . The world would've been deprived of the geniuses .
Let Jackie Chan , the versatile actor's words , " I never wanted to be the next Bruce Lee . I just wanted to be the first Jackie Chan " , inspire us and let our individuality shine ... to let our talents flourish and give to the world not the next somebody , but the very first you .
Each one of us is a kind . Like Picasso and Bruce Lee , " There is magic about you that is all your own ."
Give wings to your individuality and talents .
FLY HIGH !
