One of the most influential persons in my life would have to be Goku. He was a low class sayain warrior that was sent to earth  to destroy it. Soon after arriving he was struck on the head forgetting his mission and then becoming earth's strongest defender. He has hair as black as night and the purest smile in the whole universe. He wears a bright orange training suit called a gi and thousands of pounds in training gear under. He trains every second he has so he is able fight and eventually defeat the villains of the universe. The reason Goku is so influential in my life is because he taught me to never give up and to always fight til the end; even if you die because then the dragon balls will bring you back.
     Another amazing person in my life is Courage. He is a small purple dog who is very cowardly. At birth Courage was abandoned by a dumpster then rescued by a kind lady. He now lives in the middle of nowhere with his owners Eustace and Muriel Bagge the kind lady that saved him. Eustace is a horribly mean old man who is constantly tormenting poor Courage while Muriel a sweet old lady cares for him and treats him right. Muriel is constantly being kidnapped and put in harms way and Courage is always going after her and saving her. Though Courage is scared out of his mind he is always finding the strength to push on, to keep going, to save Muriel, the one and only person in his life that has ever truly loved him. I admire Courage for always pulling through in the end and rescuing Muriel. Courage has shown more than one time what love can accomplish.
        Last but not least there is Monkey D. Luffy. He is a fun-loving pirate who sails the open sea with his crew of misfits. As a young child he ate a special type of fruit called a gum gum fruit which gave him the ability to stretch his body to extraordinary lengths. The only drawback is that after eating the fruit you lose the ability to swim and sailing on the sea swimming is almost always needed.  Though Luffy cant swim he still wants to be king the of pirates and he wont let anything stand in his way. He defeats many powerful foes that attempt to destroy his dreams but after the fight none is ever left standing. He lives by his own code and will protect anyone who needs to be protected. He is a great man and someone many fictional people look up to.
