It is important to reiterate that we humbly represent the sum of those who came before us in this world, those who inspired us, and that the concept of “self-made man” is well relative. If we see life like a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle, for instance, we get to assemble every piece in our own way, but the shapes and colours were presented to us by fellow human beings, each of them contributing to the big picture.
