Sure, we are all individuals and we like to believe most of our positive achievements are a result of our own creative sparks and individuality, while a lot of our negative actions were brought into fruition by others. Your environment largely shapes you, fundamentally people. I know you were asked this a hundred times in your primary education, but as you age I feel as if you take your positive influences that have accumulated in your life for granted. It's a good introspective activity despite the nature of the question. Who are the top five most influential people in your life? Anyone. Dead, alive, or fictional. 1. My Grandfather 2. My Brother 3. 2pac 4. Buddha 5. Stan/Kyle's monologues in South Park
This is in no specific order but: George Carlin Jack Kerouac Hunter Thompson Immortal Technique I can't think of a 5th but those people have greatly affected the way I think and look at the world.

Aside from my amazing Mother and Grandmother... 1. My first really really close childhood best friend. 2. Last guy I dated, I changed drastically (in good/bad ways). 3. Bernardo Bertolucci and Harmony Korine and many other amazing filmmakers. 4. Every writer to come from the beat generation, Kerouac, Burroughs, Ginsberg. 5. Issac Brock of Modest Mouse. I feel like every Modest Mouse song was meant for me. Wow I listed way more than 5...I suck at being distinct...
My Parents, especially my father has shaped my general attitude towords life. My first girlfriend, really brought me out of my shell and helped me grow emotionally. Another ex girlfriend, still friends with her, learned the difference between lust, loving someone, and being IN LOVE with someone. My good friend, his view on the world almost parralel mine, and the conversations and banter we have I wouldn't trade for anything. Myself, My methodical brain has verrily forced me to look at everything with a logical perspective. And I guess I could add everyone that helped me realize not EVERYthing is logical. I dunno, I'm baked.
