This is quite a stupid question, because of how long the answer would be from anyone. Most influential would be a different question. For that, I dunno. My high school football coach/Guidance counselor was definitely one. He is the main reason I am in university right now, rather than a dropout. My grade 11/12 math teacher was another. He piqued my interest in mathematics, which ended up leading me to Engineering. He went out of his way to help me, even though I was definitely a pain in the ass to him. Looking back at it, only attending about 30% of his classes must have been insulting to him. I definitely need to go back and thank him sometime. My mother was one. She supported me, regardless of what I was doing. She also relied on me for many things. My father was one. He died a few years ago, after a long battle with two different types of leukemia. He was a very smart man, and he was very successful, even though he did not go to University, and barely obtained his high school diploma. He showed me that what really matters is effort. He was a grandmaster at Chess, and, during his life, I was never able to best him (came close only once). He was an avid fisherman, and taught me to love nature. My siblings are definitely on that list too. They taught me a lot about responsibility, since they are all a lot younger than myself, I took on the "man of the house" role. It sucked, but it really made me a better person. All of my good friends fall into that list, for various reasons. The death of one of them (while we were on a trip together) really helped instill the value of life in me. Another introduced me to the whole "german gothic" scene, and I have met many awesome people through that scene. A third was always there for me, since we were both really young, and I've been there for him. We've gone through a lot of shit together. There are others that fall into this category. Sarah (the girl I lost my virginity to at 14) was definitely one. She helped bring me out of the slump I was in after my father passed away. I was incredibly depressed, and I even dropped out of school. I became stressed out over the smallest things. She saw me at my weakest, and helped me get better. It's too bad I've lost contact with her. My uncle showed me (first hand experience here.....) that the heavy drugs are bad. I have tried a number of them, before I was even legally able to drive a car in Canada..... He's also gay, so that helped me have more understanding for the culture behind that, and, even though I am not gay myself, and I know that I will never understand how they feel, I can at least sympathize and help stand up for them. The list goes on. In some ways, I've had a pretty fucked up life, but all of it has made me who I am today. If any of it changed, I wouldn't be who I am today. | ||
