do you agree that birds of "different" feathers could flock together?  

Yes. i do believe that anyone can become friends. it doesn't matter if you don't have much similarities. it doesn't matter whether you came from different backgrounds or have different preferences.... in general, it doesn't matter if you have different personalities. for as long as you accept and trust each other; if you are true or sincere to one another; and for as long as you could always be there for each other, you could be friends. sometimes, the differences among you could even bring thrill and fun to your friendship! furthermore, the diversity between you enables you to both learn from each other.
