Influências

In my life i've met people who really reinvented the definition of being human.
They are ordinary people with an immense desire to create something on their own, gather information and take this information to improve themselves.

I've met a boy that had music inside his mind. He could invent the most beautiful and sentimental songs without wasting much time. Any genre, any style, any instrument. He could learn anything within a few days. I've always told him, "Boy, you should be locked in a room just inventing music".

I've met a girl that could draw reality like it was the most simple thing to do. She had the desire and imagination to draw things so perfectly and most importantly, she could make new things, new objects.

I've met a boy that threw back his ability to play an instrument and follow his dream like it was the most natural thing to do. I'm talking about someone who gave his entire life to music and then threw it away for the desire to discover more of our world, our universe.

I've met a boy that used to destroy everything around him, including himself, his own life. Then he changed. For many reasons. He found a path. And he started to take the right decisions.

I've met a girl that was very found of nature. She would give everything for the ambient. She had objectives and she followed them without looking sideways. She's a winner.

I've met a girl that at a certain age has lost almost everything. She continued to live and fought against it all. She's now on her way to make her life here to stay.

Each of them made me as i am. They're an influence for everything i do. They made me stronger, they made me dream about things i would never think.

Now i've met a girl that is making me happy. With her and all my influences i also want to influence someone positively.
