When I am describing myself,


When I am describing myself, the words “quiet” and “shy” are definitely not used; but when I am describing my best friend Kendyl, the portrayal is quite the opposite and this has been proved.

I am an outgoing person, and I’m not scared to speak my mind, while Kendyl is more reserved with her actions and words and that is fine.

Our differences have made our relationship indestructible. Kendyl’s reserved approaches to certain circumstances have taught me that in some cases less is more and make me more receptable.

I have learned not always to speak the first idea that comes to my mind, but rather to think about the repercussions that come with my words give others time.

This lesson has definitely benefitted my relationships with others because I now listen more and speak only when necessary, making me a more loving and understanding person making more brothers.
