There have been many role models for me to look up to, so decided to list a few of them, randomly. This post might be considered opposite of this but there is a subtle difference since there is no criticism or judgment just facts. Needless to say, friends and family are excluded when i am posting this becoz i don't want to judge them n that most of them are role models some time or other for me. Also, i have not met all of the legends/icons mentioned.
