Do you have any influence over the people in your life?

Yes. we all do. The influence we have over people in our lives happens when we, without trying, behave in a manner that has integrity, compassiona and wisdom and they see us do that and want to be more like we are. Sadly, for people who have no sense of their own worth, they might be watching another behave in a way without integrity, compassiona or wisdom and they may be SO desperate for that person's approval that they start to act just like their idol.
