the story of " original "

A gentlemen suddenly stopped in front of me before we entered UCLA medical building, " original! " his voice had a bit excitement, i replied," yes, this is rick owens, this is jeffrey campbell boots, they are real, not fake. " i was continue to walk behind him, he stopped again, " so original! " he whispered. i nodded, " of course, sir, rick o and jc are the best, aren't they? "

" NO, Miss! " he shake his head stopped with obvious agitate & impatient, almost intimidated me, only director & father figure can do that, i stopped with a respectful distance, he looked almost stared at me, " i meant YOU, Miss, YOU! YOU are so original! "

i stood silent for a long while, eyes welled with tears while watching him disappeared.

our fate came across that day, he taught me " original " & has created one of the most memorable moments in my life.

EVERYONE of us is original, if we choose to live truthfully & closest to our originality, we will forever have that centered confident smile nothing can shake.
