The question was, "What has influenced you?"
The answer that hit home:
Think of yourself on a sandy beach. There's a tempest. Millions upon billions of sand grains are smashing against your body. When you get off of the dunes and into shelter, assuming you clean yourself, you find sand in your hair, eyes, armpits, shoes, and numerous other places. All of those little grains of sand did something to you. You carried them with you. That's how people influence eachother. But, there's always a difference. Some people are sand grains, some a pebbles, others stones, rocks, and boulders. Others are undeniable rock slides.
