Fraction Friends?

 Many people believe that you act like the people that you hang out with. For instance, if you hang out with the "athletes" you are most likely going to be an athlete yourself, or if you hang out with people who love something specific, you probably love the same thing. Not only do you probably like the same things as the people that you hang out with, you probably act like them. 

I believe that this is true. I think this is not only true for the people I know, but also for myself. I have developed traits and characteristics from my friends, that if I did not hang out with them, I most likely would not have. I can see some of my characteristics in my friends as well. I believe that this naturally occurs. In the same way that we have some of the same personalities as our family, we also develop personalities similar to our friends over time. It is rather impossible not to when you spend so much time with someone.

For me, I feel like this is a good thing, I think that I can learn and grow as a person by being with my friends. I think that I have developed some of their good traits, and it makes me a better person. However, this is because I have a great group of friends that make the right decisions and do the right thing. I am so thankful for them and glad that they put me in a position to grow as a person.
