THE MOST IMPORTANT TRAITS ABOUT PEOPLE I WANT TO BE SURROUNDED WITH ARE BEING DOWN TO EARTH AND NONJUDGEMENTAL. PEOPLE THAT CAN THINK FOR THEMSELVES AND NOT WHAT THE CONSENSUS THINKS. THE TOUGHEST THING IN LIFE IS JUST BEING ABLE TO BE YOURSELF WITHOUT FEAR AS TO WHAT OTHER PEOPLE WILL THINK OR DO. TO ABLE TO STAND ON YOUR OWN TWO FEET AND MAKE DECISIONS THAT ARE TRUE TO YOURSELF AND YOUR BEST INTERESTS. THAT IS TRULY BEING "REAL" AND THAT IS WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE "QUALITY" SURROUNDINGS.
