I strongly recommend this.
Being in school has given me the ability to open my mind and make friends who aren’t from this country, English isn’t their first language, who come from different levels of economic status, who believe in different things than I do . . . Ask people questions; get to know them.
The scariest thing is to be stagnant on a narrow path with the same old friends, doing the same old shit at the same old places and that’s how you get stuck. Don’t be what I call a “surface friend.” I have had so many pointless relationships and friendships that had no depth. So many people have a hard time talking about how they feel and the real shit that’s going on in their life or has happened.
You may have known someone for years but how much do you really know about them? And how do you change if you don’t open up?
