I forgot a couple: Carl Sagan and Noam Chomsky

 

[Lionheart]

Aaron Kipnis, Ph.D. Author of the book "Knights without Armor: A Practical Guide for Men in Quest of Masculine Soul"

He specializes in Depth Psychology and Gender Issues and is committed to the healing of men's lives. He has had a positive influence in the way that I view myself as a man and a human being.

There are others but this is the one that comes to mind right now.

No less important are; Jesus Christ, Gandhi, Chief Joseph, Chief Seattle, John F Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., the Dalai Lama, Lord Buddha, Albert Einstein, etc.

The reasons are numerous, but mainly they have inspired me to be a better person and instilled hope in my life when it was dark and I could not see any light.

I want to add @AngelkeeperJ/AKJ who has encouraged and supported me on this healing journey!!! Much love to you my friend!

I am echoing @Mal Content, but she got here first
His Holiness the Dalai Lama because his teachings healed my soul.
Martin Luther King Jr. because he stood up for what he believed in, despite the hatred.
Gautama Buddha, for his teachings.
DDQ, for her ability to be resilient enough to not give up this fight.
My son, who is a beautiful, kind soul.

Definitely my father. He was always a hardworker, good with money, worked hard but played harder (lots of vacations growing up). Probably also my mom. Even though she was hardly around. When I did see her or observe her she was always working. She became homeless but found a way out of it. She always seemed to make things work out in the end. My grandma for her giving spirit.
