⚠️help me write a Historical Flair Conclusion using the prompt : Why choosing friends wisely is important.⚠️

Answer:

True friendship is worth more than gold, because the elements of character and virtue that make true friendship a blessing cannot be purchased. The best type of friend is one who is wiser and better than ourselves, inspiring us through their wisdom and virtue. They commit noble deeds, and their wisdom and goodness lifts us higher both mentally and morally.

Those that intend to be great artists practice imitating the lines of previous masters, just as those who desire to life a good life must carefully follow the examples of trusted and true friends, imitating their good qualities until they equal or exceed the other person’s virtuous deeds.

A Man is Known by the Company He Keeps

This proverb is always true. A person’s character has the ability to change others through daily interaction faster than through any other means. Purity creates purity; like creates like. This makes the choice of companions in early life more important than that of teachers or guardians. Keep good company, and you shall become good.

When Sir Joshua Reynolds was a boy, he had such great reverence for the Pope that he would press through the crowd simply to touch his coat with the end of his forefinger, as if he expected to be lifted higher by the act, and become more of a man. That same feeling should apply in the choice of companions. Select those whose nobleness inspires you to reach out in admiration.

Companionship Saves or Destroys

The late Rev. Dr. Thomson, of New York City, published the story of a youth who came under his ministry at nineteen years of age. He was the son of pious parents, neither profane, idle, nor vicious, and had established a character for industry and sobriety. At twenty-one he was employed by a rail road company, where he made friends with wicked companions. He soon fell into evil ways, and in less than a year, became too abandoned and reckless to be harbored by the church. This man died within three years.

Dr. Thomson described it, “Two weeks ago I knelt in that murderer’s cell, in company with his parents, sister, and brother, who had come for their last interview with him on earth. That narrow cell was more solemn than the grave itself. Two weeks ago tomorrow I saw the youth, who had once been of my spiritual flock, upon the scaffold. It was an awful scene. He made a brief address. Oh, if you could have heard the warning of that young man from the scaffold:

‘You know how I was brought up’, he said. ‘I had the best instructions a Christian father could give. Oh, if I had followed them, I should have been in my dear father’s home; but evil companions led me astray, and I have come to this! I hope, now, as I leave the world, my voice will warn all young men. Our desires and passions are so strong that it requires very little to lead us astray. I want to urge it upon all young men, never to take the first step in such a career as mine. When the first step is taken in the paths of sin, it is very difficult to stop.'”

The company he kept led to his fall. Associates make or break a man. A promising boy can be transformed into a felon, while a felon can be transformed into a promising man. All the lessons of home can be nullified, and the language and habits of your current company can replace years of previously learned behavior.

On a positive note, good companionship has the power to elevate and bless the spirit. It can do far more for you than wealth, home, or books. The benefits of good schools, churches and social clubs are in large part attributable to the quality and abundance of the pure spirited companions to be found there.

So she went to her hardworking cousin and said:

"Cousin, I have no beans stored for winter and the season is nearly gone. But I have no snakeskin to gather the beans in. Will you lend me one?"

"But why have you no packing bag? Where were you in the moon when the snakes cast off their skins?"

"I was here."

"What were you doing?"

"I was busy talking and dancing."

"And now you are punished," said the other. "It is always so with lazy, careless people. But I will let you have the snakeskin. And now go, and by hard work and industry, try to recover your wasted time."

FREAK THE MIGHTY CHAPTER 18! PLEASE HELP!

Jim was never late. Della held the watch chain in her hand and
sat near the door where he always entered. Then she heard his step in
the hall and her face lost color for a moment. She often said little prayers
quietly, about simple everyday things. And now she said: “Please God,
make him think I’m still pretty.”

Jim stopped inside the door. He was as quiet as a hunting dog when
it is near a bird. His eyes looked strangely at Della, and there was an
expression in them that she could not understand. It filled her with fear.
It was not anger, nor surprise, nor anything she had been ready for. He
simply looked at her with that strange expression on his face.

From inside the coat, Jim took something tied in the paper. He threw
it upon the table.

For there lay The Combs—the combs that Della had seen in a
shop window and loved for a long time. Beautiful combs, with jewels,
perfect for her beautiful hair. She had known they cost too much for
her to buy them. She had looked at them without the least hope of
owning them. And now they were hers, but her hair was gone.

Jim had not yet seen his beautiful gift. She held it out to him in
her open hand. The gold seemed to shine softly as if with her own warm
and loving spirit.

“Isn’t it perfect, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You’ll have
to look at your watch a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch.
I want to see how they look together.”

Jim sat down and smiled.

“Della,” said he, “let’s put our Christmas gifts away and keep them
a while. They’re too nice to use now. I sold the watch to get the money
to buy the combs. And now I think we should have our dinner.”

Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.

This sounded nonsense to Alice, so she said nothing, but set off at once towards the Red Queen. To her surprise, she lost sight of her in a moment, and found herself walking in at the front-door again.

A little provoked, she drew back, and after looking everywhere for the queen (whom she spied out at last, a long way off), she thought she would try the plan, this time, of walking in the opposite direction.

It succeeded beautifully. She had not been walking a minute before she found herself face to face with the Red Queen, and full in sight of the hill she had been so long aiming at.

Why does Alice need to walk in the opposite direction to get to the Red Queen?

because the Red Queen has moved to another location
because Alice is initially walking in the wrong direction
because the house has changed the location of its windows and doors
because in this land the opposite way of doing things is often the correct way
