Influence

Everyone influences everyone. In fact, to not be influenced is a lie. The question is how much are people influenced? To be influenced is not a bad thing. But at some point does it become a problem? When one let's them self become so influenced that they loose personality. At which point groups are started. I'm sure everyone is aware of the common stereotype of the cheerleaders. There is only one person who thinks for themselves, the rest follow blindly. At that point influence is a bad thing. But overall is it? Without influence in America, would it be the same place? The beautiful thing about influence and the the human mind. Everyone see's and interprets things differently. Therefore, when someone is influenced by an idea, and duplicates an idea, it will be different than the original idea. And in a way that's how we get variety.

  1. This is very interesting. It is very true that there are many people in this world who don't know how to think for themselves. They just tag on to other peoples' ideas and call it a day. This is all fine and good however, we need to step back and look at things for ourselves. Let's also open up our minds a little to all the possibilites in the world. Are facts really facts? Or is there something different lying beneath the surface? Hmmm...
