Influential people

[Tude]

I do apologize if there's already a thread like this. It goes without saying, mods please feel free to move this thread/whatever as you see fit.

So, let's all discuss people who were/are influential in our lives. People who've lent a helping hand and/or guidance to us, irl or otherwise.

There's many things we're thankful for. Let's acknowledge THE PEOPLE!

Many of my teachers were highly influential to me. It's thanks to some of them that I'm alive today.

Same here.

The most influential people in my life have turned out to be my friends, supporting me through homelessness when they could and helping me through rough times in my life. I owe the fact that I'm still alive to my friends and I try to give that back when I can.

My mother, Charles Manson, various political dictators. And yes I'm serious. Whether anyone considers any of those people good or bad I have learned from them all.
