APAD:Show me who your friends are, ...
Show me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are.
One of the most well-known and repeated proverbs in Spanish says, “tell me who your friends are, and I will tell you who you are”. It is an old Spanish saying that means that you can predict a person's behavior by analyzing the people they hang out with
Your current friends are a reflection of you, and are 100% your choice. A friend is someone you chose to spend time and associate with.
The people you choose to be around shape your personality, the way you think, the way you speak, and the way you perceive the world.
Whether we are aware of it or not, the people we choose to pay attention to and consider friends frame our reality. They are a barometer of what is normal, what is possible.
"Show me your friends and I'll show you your future" -Dan Pena
