Topic: some people think it’s better to choose friends who always have the same opinion as them. Other people believe it’s good to have friends who sometimes disagree with them
Many people believe that it's an advantage to have like-minded friends whereas some argue that having people with a different opinion adds more benefit to life. Whereas minds that think alike can conclude a discussion swiftly, different point of view on a topic broadens one's horizon of the intellectual realm. This essay supports the argument of having friends with persons who are not easily convinced by a person's thoughts.
