#people #friend
Friends
 are the most precious gifts in our lives.
However
, some people believe that it is better to have a friend of the same perception. While,
on the other hand
, a fair amount of civilians have a belief that it is better to have mated with different opinions than theirs. Before, forming any
further
 conclusion, I will discuss both views in
this
 essay.
First
 of all, having
friends
 with the same thinking help in reducing conflicts and misunderstanding.
For instance
, two
friends
 with the same thought process will act in the same way and there would be less confusion and potential argument as they both will be on the same side. Sometimes, it can lower the chance of improvement of an individual's personality as the other friend will not able to correct him because he
also
 has the same approach of thinking. It is good to have
friends
 of a different opinion as they might help us to enhance our personality in different ways. But,
this
 is not true always as it can cause a lot of fights and anger among them.
Furthermore
, there was a survey conducted by pupils of Australian university between two different types of groups of people with one having
friends
 with the same opinions and other having
friends
 who were having different perception. The survey revealed that another group was having more conflicts and fight than the
first
 group which consisted of the same kinds of
friends
. In conclusion, I would like to state that
friends
 are very important in everyone's lives so the selection of them should be done wisely.
