I never looked up to my Dad. He and my mom would always fight. They probably separated at least ten times. They both drank a lot and he's been known to have hit and kicked her. I was more flamboyant when I was younger so he didn't relate to me at all and he payed more attention to my older sister. He used to pull my hair a lot and he's kicked me. When my parents divorced and I moved to WV, I used to look up to my cousin a lot. He was 17 and he introduced me to weed and drinking and I went to a lot of parties when I was only 12 and 13. I looked up to him, but I now I don't always. Now that I moved to Florida, I get a better picture of who he actually is. I have a little cousin on my Dad's side who is turning 8. He used to bug the hell out of me when I was younger because I saw him more often, but now that I don't see him a lot I miss him. I was a flamboyant kid, but hanging out with my older cousin made me more boy-ish i guess. I dont like sport though. When I visited my little cousin last Christmas, he asked me who my favorite sports team was. I said I don't watch sports. That almost killed me inside, because it's a constant reminder that I'm not like most guys and that my little cousin is more guy-ish than I am.

My Grandfather was the largest influence on my life. He taught me everything, gave me books as a refuge, and had given me great advice in dire times. He was my father in a sense and I probably wouldn't be the person I am today. Sometimes I wonder if he is watching me right now guiding my way. All I know is that I love him, and I hope he rests in peace.
Love you Pa.

I look up to my mother, she dropped everything to take care of me after my dad ran off. I can never thank her enough for that, she turned me into who I am today.
I don't think anyone looks up to me, but I hope one day that I will do something so moving that people will look at me and know I am a good person.

Well my family was pretty lame, my mam had her fair share of problems, Dad is very arrogant, older brother is a waste of society's time so not really.
In terms of looking up to people, they were mostly people around the world. Succesful businessmen, Tom Delonge actually and I guess I always had a strong desire to be a better person

I don't think I have anyone who looks up to me, at least I hope no one does..
I don't really look up to anyone anymore.. I used to look up to my friend Steve but he's somewhere doing army stuff.

Before he died I used to look up to my uncle, more than my father. I guess he acted more like my father as well. He looked after me, treated me like another son and was there for me all my life up until that point. Made me who I am today. In a way I guess I still do look up to him. My godson looks up to me in the same kind of way I looked up to my uncle at some point in my childhood, I'm really the only father figure he has now. He's more like my son than anything to be quiet honest.

I look up to my mother and one of my cousins as they both made it big through hard times. My father did also but his times weren't as hard plus he did make it big but retired from it for now. He still does work although not as much.
I also look up to one of my friends as he's brilliant but he works for his brilliance yet at home I'm aware it's not great. He likes to find peace in activities, such as fishing in the morning but his goal is not only to catch-and-release but more to just relax.
I know various kids at the dojo I attend do look up to me, some of my younger cousins do and maybe one of my friends.

There are lots of people I look up to in one way or another. I think it is important to have role models.

I'm not sure if anyone looks up to me.
I looked up to my grandpa. He went through everything and almost always understood, or at least tried to. He helped me if I couldn't talk to anyone else. I could tell him anything without him judging me ever. I miss him.
Now I seem to look up to my brother more. He's put up with a lot and Still going strong.

I don't look up to anyone, really. I look out for myself and depend on myself. People are careless.
