Parents

My parents have influenced me significantly by changing my thinking of many factors such as modern-day problems or the bond between my friends. At the start, I did not really have interest in these problems, but the more they started to interfere with my life, the more I started to think about them. My parents taught me what exactly they are and how I can do anything to change it.

Book

The book Cat's Cradle deeply influenced me on the subject of irresponsibility and the consequences it can have. Though it is fiction, this book applies to the real world and satirically mocks people who do not think about the implications of their actions. This made me not want to follow these people and start to have more responsibility when I do things.

Past event/Real world event

Past events, specifically watching a fight (verbally or physically), had made me rethink the limits one has when they act. When people disagree with each other, they have the desire to convert the other person's thinking into what they think, pushing the limits of what someone can do to a person. This made me realize that debating or fighting back is an important factor in life.

Person you don't know

I remember seeing someone (forgot the name) being accused wrongly and getting sent to jail. This particular scenario made me think about the unfairness of the world. Some people may have more power or privilege than others, being able to overpower what they think about the situation.

Place

Landmarks made especially for tragic causes in the past made me think about how big and atrocious events will leave a scar on the world for a long time. This so so that people will be able to remember the event.
