Tête-à-tête with Jackie: Authenticity

Friday 6 May 2016

"Sometimes, when I look at myself in the mirror, I think about him."

"What do you mean?"

"Just my face...it reminds me of him."

"Hmm...I wonder why."

"I think it's because when you like someone, you subconsciously, or even consciously, want to look like them. You want to be passionate about what they are passionate about, you want to spend time doing what they are doing, you like their favorite color, you like driving at sunset because they used to like it too, you spend time outdoors because you want to see what they see...you become them in a way...that's why it reminds you of them to look at yourself in the mirror."

"Waw, so well said! Can you write it down? I'll quote you."

"...I don't mean only people you loved, but I believe every single person who passes through your life leaves a part of themselves ingrained in you. In other words, you're the result of everybody you've met...Authenticity is sometimes very ironic."
