We each choose the people we are with in life.

In our lives we have different friends and aquaintances. These people we have selected to be with us and vice versa.

I choose to have good people as my friends.

Each of us has had a parent try to warn us about how important it is to be with good people and be seen with good people. Good parental advice eh ! We all have heard as children, from our parents that " Birds of a feather flock together " and " You are known by the company you keep ".
