whom to influence?

I read a post this morning from a former student who thanked her past high school teachers for helping her years later, as an adult. She took time and recognized how many people were instrumental to her as a person. The behind the scenes peoples, like teachers.

Now this can flip. The behind the scenes peoples, like teachers, can also make our lives more difficult. True?

Either way, there have been a plethora of individuals, who have helped shape a plethora individuals. Collectively. (might need to read that again). Both positively and negatively.

So who were your influencers and whom are you influencing today? And how?

I like to recall the happy memories, but it is the crappy ones that elicit a more profound change. Sometimes.

but ... is it who or whom? (random thought, actual answers need not post.)

Thought for the day:

Recall 3 unlikely positive influencers in your life. What did they do or say? How did it affect you? Would you encourage or discourage the same thoughts or behavior now- for someone else? Would you do it again or advise against it? Either way-

Action: Pass it on. Or, intentionally, do not.
