Waze

Think about where you are right now, where you live, what you do, who you hang around.  Now think about all the events that took place to get you there, all of the decisions made or not made, all the turn rights instead of lefts, everything that has happened in your life is responsible for where you currently stand.  When I think about my life, my current circumstances and past, I think about the avenues I have travelled due to the people I chose to be around.  We are all a product of our environment and nothing encompasses more of that environment than the people we allow in our lives.  The closer a person gets to knowing the real you, the more influence they possess over you.  

Think about that in the terms of relationships.  We tend to look at our lives in chunks of time whether it be "when I was a kid", "high school years", "college"... but we also devote large portions of our life to people.  Right now if you think about the last ten years of your life you will most certainly group a part of it with the memories of a particular person, those moments spent with or devoted to that person will serve as a bookmark in the story of your life.  In life we meet people and form bonds, sometimes those bonds are so strong that we let them navigate the course of our life.  All of our decisions are made with them in the fore front our our minds, whether it be as small as where to eat or as large as where to live we give that person permission to influence our path.  Now imagine if you could go back in time and delete a person from the history of your life, whatever the two of you shared never happened, you never met at all.  How would this affect your story? Would you be where you are right now if it weren't for them? Would you be happier, better, or worse...?

During our lives we will make millions, upon millions of decisions, some of which are small and some of which are major but I believe none to be more important than who we choose to love.
