Devil or Angel ?

A known quotation says: "Tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you who you are". We see that in different societies and environments there are different types of people, and in the same environments there are the same types of people. People are influenced by their friends and TV shows, their parents' education and so on.

We are influenced by our society, and that means we learn from it. We learn how to express and develop our personalities. So, is it true that people are sometimes evil because they have acquired it from their environment, or are they just naturally evil?

I can answer that question with an example. A friend of mine told me about a girl that randomly talked nastily to her with no reason. After 2 minutes her friend came and started to talk exactly in the same way to my friend. I can also say that I would respond to that situation just the same as my friend responded to that- by not answering and walking away. The bottom line is that my friend and I are the same, and this girl and her friend are the same.

In conclusion, when we are born we are not evil or kind at all. As we grow older, our personality is formed by our education, friends and family.  No one is born either evil or kind, our job is to decide which part of our society's values we want to absorb.

It's better. Good work.

The Generation Gap

Parents-children relationships are complicated, especially when children turn into raging teenagers. They grow up and have their own opinions, while demanding their independency. Teenagers also have stimulated hormones, which strengthen their anger and sensitivity.

My relationship with my parents is quite typical. They do something I don’t like, I get angry, and we fight. But the most beautiful thing about it is that we all forget about it after 2 seconds. People say that you fight with a person just because you care about him/her, and that means you love him/her. I'm sure that my parents are strict with me just because they want the best for me.

I think that the reason for the problematic relationships is the generation gap. The older generation has its own rules and boundaries, and so does the younger generation. The older generation always shows more dignity to the elders, and less self expression. In contrast, The younger generation advocates freedom, independency and liberty.

In conclusion, I think that the generation gap problem can be solved by tolerance, understanding, patience and respect. We should all respect one another and be kind to each other, by compromising our thoughts and opinions. After all, we all love each other.

Very good work!

Let's go team !

Some people prefer team sports while others prefer individual sports. if I want to join any kind of sports, I would definitely want to be on a team. It develops your communication with people, you meet new friends etc. 

First, team sports can help you meet some new friends, who will stay for a long time. These friends can know what your ups and downs are, which creates a good relationship. Working on a team and helping others can improve your team work skills, being more patient and listening to others' opinions.

Not only can team sports improve you as a single person, but as a partner as well. For example, you're in a game and you make a mistake. As an individual sportsman, you have to solve it by yourself, and you may lose the game. But if you're part of a team and you make a mistake, your friends can help you and your team as well. It also works the other way around – you can be the one who solves the problem.

In conclusion, team sports help your motivation, since you learn to get along with people and trust them while you're in a game. And that is why team sports are more beneficial than individual sports.
