Disagreements Are Just Part Of Life

Hello everyone. I hope you're all doing well. It's been sometime since I last participated in the weekly featured contest. But today upon seeing the topic I thought I could say something about it. So before talking about friendship, we should talk about people first and it is given that no two people are the same. People have ideas. They have opinions. They have their own points of views. Whenever we communicate with people there will always be some differences. But that doesn't mean that we shouldn't communicate. In fact, it is what makes us human rather than beasts. It is the ability for us to endure and tolerate one's opinion which will not align with ours that has given us the prosperity which we enjoy today. Because otherwise society would not afford and considering society was the first element towards human civilization, everything else would not have happened. ---  [Source](https://www.pexels.com/photo/four-men-sitting-on-ground-1974927/) --- Not coming back to friendships. We all have friends obviously. Some may have a lot of friends and some may have few. It is understandable that two people largely agree on so many things that they eventually become friends. Because otherwise, why would they talk to each other for more than once if they couldn't agree on anything? But even with all those similarities, people do have their differences. In fact I myself am in a similar situation as well. I have friends who are opinionated and each of those are vastly different from one another. Now in my country political allegiance is quite important especially after the uprising we had last year. So me, along with those particular friends of mine who are of different opinions, we get into debates over different situations happening across the country. And we never agree on anything. Because his point of view is one and my point of view is another and sometimes these conversations get better at that moment it feels like why on Earth am I putting up with this and why do I stay connected to these people. But that's just it. After that conversation things go back to normal very quickly. We help each other in academics and we talk about a myriad of other things and the fighting we have during those particular conversations don't affect our general relationship. This is just one example. A more mild example can be two friends arguing about who is a better player. Is it Messi or Ronaldo? That is a question for the ages and we have heated debates on those things as well. But these disagreements haven't stopped us from being friends. We still help each other in any way we can. We still keep contact and we still talk about the other things we could enjoy together. And I believe that is fine and it's probably how it should be. Cuz if we end up cutting off everyone when we disagree with them, you will eventually be left with no friends. That without friends or contacts, he could only go so far in a society as interconnected as the modern day. So for your own sake or for the sake of your well-being, I guess it's good if you can tolerate one or two disagreements and not jump to conclusions based on isolated matters. After all they say “Let’s just agree to disagree”.
