There is a custodian at my school who is very wise.

Every time I talk to him I feel like I am in an ABC Family movie and he is the slightly crazy man that gives me the inspiration to live my life and go after that thing (probably a man, because it's ABC Family) that I love.  The kids call him Jesus Janitor because he has long hair and a beard.

Here is an actual conversation from a couple days ago:

Me: Hi there.
Jesus Janitor: Hello, how are you?
Me: I'm great, how are you doing?
JJ: Well I think I am good.
Me: That's great.
JJ: The reason I say "I think" is because I don't know.
Me: Ok...
JJ: Because how can we really know, you know?  Everything we know could be different than what everyone else knows.
Me: Yeah, totally.
JJ: Maybe what's good for me isn't what's good for you.  We all need to seek out what is good for us and make that a reality in our individual lives.  I seek to know what is good for me and I pray that I can experience that every day.
Me: Mmkay, yeah! Good luck.
JJ: Thank you, good luck in your journey too.
