Opposites

     In the science world, similar attractions have a tendency to repel against one another, while opposites attract. This law in science holds great truth in people, in most cases. Sometimes people who are similar, do not get along very well. People who are different, balance each other. For example, my friend Jade and I have different interests, but we are like a dynamic duo.
   Jade and I are not polar opposites but  we do not have the same ideas and interests. She is more adventurous and has a lot more worldly experiences than I do. She also wants to join the national guard. I have not really been anywhere besides Las Vegas, and I definitely do not want to have anything to do with the military. Although we have different interests and come from different places in life, we get along great, we never argue and there is never a dull moment when we get together. We balance each other.
     Befriending people who share the exact same interests and backgrounds that you do, is not always in your best interests. It is important to branch out and embrace diversity.It is good to have a difference of opinion and perspectives.
