Show me your friends, I will tell you what you are. Young people should always be told to keep a good company (friends). Good friends always help the person to achieve good things in life. Even the wicked and bad people when they move in the company of good people, become good people. People judge a person by the company I keep. Can I have your comments on this?

Thanks for the compliments. You addressed my question very well. I knew you would do that. I also wanted to request you to make all your responses (not only for my discussion) more descriptive, conclusive for two reasons: 1. To make mylotees understand in detail 2. To earn more points and more money. This particular response you have made is wonderful. Thanks.

I made that comment because I thought the statments you made where very true and showed a sense of wisdom and understanding of human behavior that some are to blind to see or accept. People do in deed look at us and our companionship. One's behavior will also reflect on and change our own as well. (In my opinion anyway). Did that address your question?

That is very correct. A person who is a friend of drunkard or a thief, his habits tend to be same as that of his friend.

i agree with this statement...we tend to be easily influenced by our friends...and that's how i picked up smoking as well :D when you mix with people who like to do nothing, we will adapt the same thinking as well...but try mixing around with those ambitious people, it will make us wanna set goals for ourself and will become more ambitious.

I forgot to include "Good company". Definitely I will not like to have a company which influences me to do bad things. That much conscience one should have while mingling with GOOD, BAD AND UGLY. Thanks for your interesting contribution to this discussion.
