Which people in your life have contributed to who you are today? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people6 months ago

Everyday we are our own individual being, but there are little quirky parts of us that we've picked up from other people who may be heroes or inspirations to us.
In your life, which people could you say have helped make you who you today? Who has impacted your life the most and why? Have you picked up any habits from them?

One person in my life who has helped me get where I am today is my youth pastor. His integrity and determination for our youth ministry drive me further in life. If someone can be so selfless, so can all of us. He never quit on me, even when I gave up on myself and he still loved me no matter what I said to or about him.

How about you?

I am very happy about what happened to you, particularly during the time that you've messed up and even given on life. Truly, your youth pastor is a very good guide for you to stand up and live the life that God wants you to be. It's wonderful to know that your youth pastor is living with character and integrity. There are a lot of people who contributed to what I am today; my teachers, my Preachers, and some friends who stood with me in bad times and in good times!lol


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

Thank you very much.:) I am glad you agree that my Pastor is a good guide. A lot of people in my town hate him because of the honesty he speaks.
I'm glad to hear that you have people that will catch you if you fall. It is wonderful to have people that love you enough to stick through the bad times with you and laugh through the good times. They are truly wonderful blessings from God!
Thanks for your response and happy mylotting!

i think i would have to say my mom.

i grew up from a broken family and i've been with my mom the longest. my other sisters were brought to my grandma, while i was with my mom the whole. we've been through a lot and there were times i can say i was not happy... but i am who i am because of what i've been through with my mom.

sure there are other people that have contributed to being who i am today, but it was my mom and our experiences together that made me the person i am today.


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

That's very sweet! I am so thankful to hear that though your childhood was rough, you still had someone to live through it with. I hope that you are both doing well and that your family life is improved!It is lovely to hear of such a great bond between a mother and daughter. Happy mylotting!

My Mom contributed a lot for who and what i am now. The love she has for me is unconditional.
Even if i made a lot of mistakes in my life, she still accept me with open arms. Without her i wont be what i am now since she support me all the way. She provide us everything and encourage us and give us hope to focus more on our studies.
I guess, we made her proud because after all her sacrifices we get to finished college.

I owe my life to her. She is one of a kind and probably the best mom in the whole wide world.

I love you mommy:)


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

Ahh, unconditional love is one of the most touching things. I'm glad you grew up with a fantastic mom. She sounds like a great person and I'm sure she'd be glad to know you appreciate her so much.:) Thanks for your response.

hello there...i am glad for you that you have this pastor who influenced your life positively...

me, i always say that its my mother who contributes more on who i am today! i never looked at other people to be my role model...and she is not aware that she's my idol!happy
my mom is not perfect..she have her flaws...but what i like most about her is how she values our family and her marriage to my father...they've been through many trials and problems in their marriage...but she keeps holding on and in good faith...
she's my teacher, my mentor, my best friend!
everything that i know, everything i am...i owe it to her...maybe its also because of her why i have this high respect on the value of marriage and how to treat my husband...
i am thankful to her coz i believe that i am a better person now because of her...
i thank God for her and glory be to God!


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

You should let her know how much you admire her! Sometimes that's all a mother needs to hear to make her day so much better! Wow, she sounds like a very determined person. I am glad she taught you good morals and that you had her in your life! Thanks for your post.


myLot reputation of 98/100. ckyera (2502)   ranked 463 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

yes...i will let her know! but i think she feels it already...
and that's all i wanted...to make her happy!happy

This is an easy one. My sister and her kids as well as my husband make me who I am! They 4 of them make me want to be a better person and better myself so I can be around for a long time to drive them all insane....lol...no seriously--they mean everything to me and give me a reason to push myself when I think I cant.


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

It sounds like you have an amazing family! They sound like a real motivation to you. Self improvement is always a good thing to push for, especially if it means being able to drive them insane even more.:) Thanks for replying. Happy mylotting!

I would have to say it would be my parents. I have been with them every single day of my life. Since I was a baby, they were the ones who instilled good values and habits in me. People always tell me I have good manners. I always tell them it is because of my parents who used to scold and punish me when I was a kid when I behaved poorly. My parents also always pushed me to excel in school. That is why I always get good grades and is an honor student. Because of this, I learned to become more diligent and responsible.


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

That's awesome! They sound like good people. Congrats on your honor classes. I know they can be very hard. I'm glad they had such a good impact on your life. Thanks for sharing.

Your reply really touched me. It reminded me of all the stories I have heard of parents who give up everything so their children can have a better life. I am very happy that you are one of those people who did not take education for granted. Keep up the good work! It's good to have so many wonderful people in your life.

Aside from my parents and few friends who understand my situation being widowed and struggle against all odds just to earn a living for my children and support their education, I won't forget my boss in a realty where I was employed during the toughest times. He and his family would equipped me with all the knowledge in order to succeed in sales. They too supported me with all the materials needed including tripping vehicle. Gave me allowances in order to do my job accordingly. They would advance my commissions, gave me incentives and everything that could help me and my children. I learned from them, the positive mental attitude approach. My children now are employed and I'm quite rested. I owe to them where my children are today and the knowledge in sales and all the positive attitude in life, I have today.


myLot reputation of 81/100. believerachel (613)   ranked 6,492 out of 35,350 in people  6 months ago

Wow, how powerful! It's amazing how love can make you strive for a better education and life for your children. It's great that your Boss helped you pull through the tough times. I hope he knows all the good he has done, and I also hope that you know the good you've done for your children by not giving up. Thanks for sharing.:) Happy mylotting!
