I am currently reading "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse.
I could name someone profound and famous but honestly, it's my parents......I think that they have done such an amazing job at raising me...giving me independence and with that strength to overcome anything. They gave me the ability to think on my own...letting it be okay for me to express myself (even if they didn't really get it!) and the sense to know right from wrong...and especially bc they taught me how to be sensitive and caring and open with the people that I love...they have been good role models, good parents, and now good friends who are always on my side and are confident in my ability to get through anything.
