Who has made you the person you are?

The woman or man whom you loved so much to say "I do" . your boss in your place of work. The personal counsellor who advice you every day on how potential you are. For me the person who has made a difference in my life is the teacher who has made me believe that I can made it life

The person who made me who I am is my mother. All her negativity about who she perceived me to be forced me to prove I'm not that person.

I am sorry there was negativity involved. Did that reflect her own issues?

I don't believe that people are influenced only by one person or event.

The teacher is the founder of child growth intellectually. He or she is can define what you will be in future.

That sounds like a very special teacher I would have to say mine is my mom - when I don't believe in myself, she does. She is an excellent person and I will never be as lovely as she is

Too many influences to name. But speaking of names, I'll name a few people I admire, who I'm sure helped played a role. Mort Sahl, Jim Morrison, John Lennon, Jimmy Hoffa, Bill Hicks, John Cassavetes, Marlon Brando.

My parents made me who I am today. and some of my teachers inspired me to write stories, because I have loved writing, and I still do. but daily chores prevented me from doing so. Some of my friends have also encouraged me to become a better person, and my fave music artists, BTS, have inspired me stay true to myself.

Wow. Well, God, first, Who I wouldn't be here without. After a couple of the people He gave me--my pastor who was like a grandfather to me, and a good High School friend who was like a (slightly) older brother. Both of them helped me through a lot.

For me, it would have to be my grandmother. Some in the family may not agree, but that is what I think.
