The Difference Between Inspiration & Imitation

Ultimately, the difference between inspiration and imitation is intent. Choose to be conscious of what's been done, what's happening around you, and what you're choosing to put into the world. Find your own voice and the form that fits it best. We all get our start by imitating, but ultimately we're meant to move on as we grow.
