Apparently people no longer believe that birds of a feather flock together, with people asserting that adults are mature enough to hang around the wrong kind of people and not be influenced by them. Be that as it may, the people we allow to pour into us, do actually influence the kind of people we become. My cousin once told me that there are friends for every lifestyle you choose, so are the people around you helping you build towards that life or are they taking from it?
