Who has influenced you in your life?

DONT YOU DARE SAY PARIS HILTON !!

OKay anyways..

Has anyone ever meet a certain person who really made a change in their life? Who changed the way you view things, the way you now think?

Im not really sure if i have just one person... I observe people.. iv been an observer my whole life. I know people and how to relate. I learn from everyone around me what not to do, and what i could do. I try to be my own individual but when i am around someone i like and respect i catch myself doing things they are doing. the way they speak, the words they use. i adapt to new environments of living, language, and culture pretty easy..

No one person has influenced my life, my life has been influenced by life itself.
Experience is my constant influence.:thumbsup:

Totally agree with you man. No one has realy influenced me, but I am somewhat like the thread starter as well. I am an observer. And from my observations, I make decisions.

Perhaps one of my biggest faults in not being able to accept a role model...

Everyone and everything has influenced my life...I take what I want and forget the rest.

Good or bad influences?
My ex was a horrible influence on my life although he taught me not to trust anyone that says they love you.
I had a teacher last semester that changed what I want to do with my life. She made me passionate about something I had hardly given any thought to before.

Tupac shakur

my first dead homie "negro" had major influence
i never knew life could be erased [snaps fingers].....just like that
one minute we are drinking and the next minute he's dead
laying in the gutter as his blood pours into the street
he was cool as fuck and the kind of person that shit dont happen to

humbled me big time...i was like 13

Of course my parents and siblings, both good and bad.

There was one girl, I wasn't that close to her. She was dating a friend of mine, Nancy Atkins, she gave me a book that completely changed my life. "Atlas Shrugged" By Ayan Rand. Completely shook up my world view. I was 17 at the time.

Honorable mention has to go to Bill Murry though :)

This man is right.

cannabis.com ;)

Noteworthy influences in my life: Artists, musicians both living and deceased, drug use. A few friends, and my family which is basically just my mother...

Lance Armstrong, Grandaddy and Flowers.

I take something from everyone I meet, or hear about even. Everyone has their own bit of knowledge or experience you can learn from.

Pssh. MANY

Everytime I meet someone that I think I can learn from, I offer them their poison and just get them talking. and absorb all the wisdom they have, some I agree with and some I don't but... i do listen and process the information.

some examples are my uncle and grandfather.....my old boss.
a bum i met right after I got out of jail.
my mother...there's many....
