Conflicts

Prudent decisions

Repercussions

Auto-correction

Indispensable

Essay Answer:

It is thought by some that synchronization of ideas is the paramount quality before establishing friendships while many think a degree of variation in thoughts between friends is essential. In my opinion, I believe that difference in thinking should be given importance as it proves better in the long run.

On the one hand, some people think that similar views in friendships help in enhancing the levels of understanding between friends. When the thought process is concurrent among two people, they often try to support each other.  This quality helps them to resolve disputes as they are well-versed with each other’s points of arguments. As an illustration, youngsters in colleges around the globe prefer friends who show them a sense of support in conflicts with other children. Therefore, similar minds make a better combination in some situations of conflicts.

On the other hand, many individuals feel that friends who have different perspectives help in giving another side of views in order to make prudent decisions. The conflicting ideas provide an opportunity for people to present arguments that are well-thought and error-free to reach at a conclusion. This not only saves a friend from repercussions of a wrong decision, but also instils a sense of auto-correction if others have logical viewpoints. Hence, it is indispensable necessity to choose peers with opposite mindset in order to reach sagacious decisions.

In conclusion, while people vary in their opinions, I consider friends having varying beliefs make friendships stronger and everlasting in the long run.
