…….I have great friends who have been brought up in loving, dedicated, scrupulous, Christian families. As for everyone in my grade, though, that’s a different story. You see, there is this girl who recently started sitting with my friends and I at lunch. She’s not exactly the nicest or most agreeable person, but she’s still a person. There is another girl in my grade who pretends to be friends with her, but is really only using her. I don’t think that’s right, because it is important to be friends with people for the right reasons.
Anyways, the girl was sitting right in the middle of our group at lunch today. I’ll admit that none of us were happy about it, but it’s not the worst thing that could ever happen. I mean, in the end, my friends and I are happier people than she is, so why not be nice to her and let her sit with us? Not everyone has a kind, loving family, so not everyone has a good foundation. But values are important, and they last a lifetime.
