"Its better to be alone than in bad company."

George Washington

To surround yourself with bad people who influence your life is one of the many ways someone can deconstruct themselves. In addition, if they do not except you for what believe in such as doing the right things in life then it is better that you let go of those friends. Furthermore, friends should be part of  the good things in life and be just as good as a person as you are. Being alone is not bad, the negative connotation that people often place on it does not help people. People hang out with others because they want to have friends, but if they feel in danger they should have the courage to leave friends who are doing bad decisions. To go on, if friends really cared about you then they should always try to do right by you and help make you a better person.
