My late father did. He was a very smart and loving person.

I have had both positive and negative influences in my life. My father was and continues to be the most negative, though I'm learning to let his influence affect me less and less.
My Sensei has had and continues to have a most positive, uplifting and empowering influence on me. And my friend, Anne Marie, has taught me the wonders of having a true friend in my life again.
There are others, but these are the ones that came to mind first.

i think everyone in my life has influenced me at some point or another, but overall . . . i'd have to say my sister! she has been my best friend and confident since birth! i can go to her with anything and will always get an honest and genuine opinion/response/answer!

It's hard to pick just one.

Hard to pick only one because everyone has somewhat of an impact on your life ... But if I had to decided ... I guess I would have to say my best friend Ashley. The only one who ever really believed completely in me.

Parents do have a lot of influence on kids, and I suspect mine had more influence(positive and negative) than I realize. And so many peopel have influenced me at different times--friends, relatives, and teachers-that it's hard to choose. But I'd have to say my husband. He's tuaght me so much about what love means, what a family is, and how to get things done in the face of adversity. He's been a positive and stabilizing supporter for most of my adult life.

I think my mother had the most influenece on me. She befriended anyone no matter of their looks, money status, or where they came from. She taught my siblings and I to do the same. She fed and helped many others living on a limited income. She taught me to save money and how to budget the food to feed extra people who come over at the last second.

My mom - my son - a man that almost killed me.

My mom set the guidelines - my son turned out to be a better person than I am (some people just are) - - the man who caused me to change my life and become a different person.
