Whether we learn them in childhood or from our surroundings as we age, most of us carry a certain set of beliefs with us as we traverse through life.

But every now and then someone will come along and say something, whether they mean to or not, that completely changes the way we think about something - and it's a pretty awesome experience.

Some of these responses may have a profound effect on how you think, too.
