Odd Children

This is my group of friends. We eat together, hang out together and have each other's backs. Such a tight knit group of people you may think, must be the same type of kid. However, this is untrue. In both physics and the real world, unlikes attract. A positive and negative or a positive or negative and a neutral charge are all examples of unlikes that are attracted to each other. In our group of friends, each person has a distinct and different personality, as well as likes and dislikes, as another person in the group. Some people are louder than others, more artsy than others, more sporty than others or more outgoing than others. These distinct personalities are what draws us to each other, like different charges, not like like charges that push each other apart. We are drawn to each other because of our differences and because of this, our large group friendship is possible.

  1. I like how you explained the physics aspect during your example rather than at the beginning. For the most part, human relationships are good when there are differences because it often seems that similar people do not interact well with each other. If a person is loud, he or she may want to interact with someone that's quieter because two talkative people may bicker at each other to be heard.

    anyway.... this blog is soooo true! we are all so different yet find ourselves all compatible. Some of us are like and some of us are unlike it just makes all of our friendships with each other that much more special!
