Tracking My Growth

    The process of growing up is complex for every person, for there are many influential factors in a person’s growth as well as the development of his personality．As for me, what has affected me most in my both growth and personality are family and friends, the two equally important factors．

After one is born, the first surroundings is the family in which he will grow up．Family plays a significant role in shaping children’s character because it’s children’s most direct source of knowledge and experiences．Those who are brought up in good families tend to possess many pleasant characters and vice versa．

On the other hand, friends in some ways influence him more rapidly than families do．Friends have many different opinions and personalities．Discussing with them builds up his personality．Frankly speaking, I get lots of valuable things from my friends．

Family offers me warmth and care．Friends give me strength and horizons．Therefore, both of them are most influential in my growth
