Answer:
I used to think that differences drove wedges in friendships and relationships. But I’ve come to find out, that our differences only make us better. I’ve been friends with the new kid before, they’ve describes all the looks you get, and it’s worse still when it’s not even the beginning of the year. In class today, I found one of these new kids. He looked nervous and wasn’t sure where to sit. The seat next to me was empty, but I was reluctant to let him sit there. I know it wasn’t the nicest thing, but he seemed different, and I wasn’t sure I was ready for different. Since mine was the only seat empty, he sat down. I introduced myself but kept my distance until we had to do a project. We worked all class, and I actually learned some really interesting things about him. While I’ve lived here for all my life, and he just moved here, that difference didn’t keep us from creating this beginning of a friendship. We’ve now been friends for a while, and our list of differences only keeps growing, we’ve actually become really good friends. Our differences have opened my mind to the idea that we can be friends even if we’re different, and that we need to respect anyone, even if we’re different.
