Cliche Catalysts? Maybe...
On first thought, it seems silly to write an open letter thanking the various people that inspired me and brought me up simply because when I stand back and look at myself, I don’t see some great accomplishment. And I certainly don’t want my shortcomings to be reflected on those near and dear to me, but if I look closely, really look, I’m not showing my gratitude to them for turning me into some spectacular protégé. I’m appreciating the fact that they influenced the most malleable parts of me in my development and indeed gave parts of themselves to me. Is it so hard for me to give credit where credit is due? Yes.
