Are we imitators?

This morning as I read 1st Thessalonians this is the question that popped into my head, "Are we imitators?"  But as I thought about it further, I recognized how absurd this question really is.  It is not possible to be original, unique, or something wholly different from everything else that surrounds us.  Truth be told there is only one authentically wholly entirely different from everything else we know, including ourselves.  The better question we should be asking ourselves daily is who are we imitating?

Paul makes it clear that if we want to grow we should be imitating the Lord and those who we know to be true disciples.

So who are you imitating?
