Who keeps you from seeing the world in new ways?

No one exists in a vacuum - the people around you fundamentally influence the way you see the world. This isn't always obvious, and people often resist this idea, but the song 'Since I left you' by the Avalanche makes this point:

Since I met you
I find the world so new
Every day

Consider the last week - who were the people in your life that helped you expand your horizons?

Were there people that would include you in that list?

But like any good love song, remember the opposite is true:

Since I left you
I found the world so new
Every day

Who were the people that, even indirectly, lead you in directions you didn't want to go, or left you stagnant? Is it time to reduce their influence?
