Second Rate Version Of Me
My life

Love it Marianne. I think, to some degree, we are all a bit counterfeit. How can we not be? As children we soak up whatever is around us like sponges. We are incredible mimics. I think, as adults we are responsible for finally choosing to dig down and finally own the genuine and authentic. You make us all aware and your words force us to think on all of it. Thank you,
