When Janeta read this post, she said:

I read what you have written in the blog. Perhaps, I hadn’t expressed myself very accurately, but you totally misunderstood my idea. The text written in the blog is not right, that is not the truth about me. I will now tell you the whole story in order to explain who the real initiator of these activities was.

This is what I replied:

What you I got from your previous essay is not the truth about you, but it is the idea people get from what you have written, so the point is not to give them the wrong impression, but to present you to your best advantage. Hope you’re not mad at me for using your essay as an example It was really a classic one

Comment on Role models and influence by Nikola

I had a few people who I used to admire for what they are and who have to some extent shaped my ambitions and desires during high-school. Later in life I was unfortunate enough to meet some of them in person.

A role model is a mix of a real person and your imagination. as you have only limited information about your idols. Hence shaping the image of a role model makes you project your own values, the ones you get from your parents, from your friends, and- ideally- from your own judgment, onto your model.

Quite unfortunately, the same applies to love.

If you allow me a note here, incompleteness would indeed imply the same boundaries. Is the infinity endlessly empty or partially full?

Take this as today’s fortune.

Comment on Essay ≠ List by Eva Holtz

Exactly. Another way of putting it is that an essay is often most successful when it is a “slice of life,” a narrative about a single event–not a long list of all such events–that demonstrates who you are, what’s important to you, or how you see the world.
