You can't try to be an original anything. It is not something to search for and find. Well, in fact, it very much can be something that needs to be sought after and found. Some people can just let it go, say... their natural curiosity for things or maybe their dreams altogether. That is the place from where our originality grows. In that sense, it can be said that originality is not lost, but misplaced and/or forgotten about over time due to the stresses of the day or circumstance(s) one may find himself involved with. One certainly has to be an original entity to deal with things, certain things that occur in life that do happen quite by chance which can be somewhat... infuriating. Outside of circumstance, it takes a certain something for someone to stick by their original goals, their original vision... whatever that vision may be. In order for anybody to conquer the realities of the day, they have to stay simple and true to that one vision, that one simple theme that drove the original idea in the first place. This is one way to seek out and find what is truly original... in you.
