Weekly Words of Advice #5

Janese Lewis, Fall Editor

Going through middle school and even high school can be hard. Especially, when you’re growing apart from friends you thought would always be around. It sucks, believe me I know. I’ve lost friends left and right, still am. Not necessarily due to arguments or fights, but we just don’t see eye-to-eye on certain things anymore. Growing away from people is okay. It can hurt at first but the people that do stay around, are going to help shape you into who you really are. You want to make sure you’re surrounded by the best people for that process. If you have to leave some people behind for that to happen, then that’s okay. Change is good sometimes. The ones who stay forever and support you unconditionally, keep them close. Those are the ones you never want to let go of.
