Relationships — who needs them? We all do. “Relationships — who needs them? This phrase is used often, but what the person saying it does not realize is that everyone needs relationships to make his life complete. Sisters and brothers are constantly at each other’s throats at one point or another, but deep down they always care and cherish that bond of love that ties them so closely together. Mary Ann and Justin Robinson are brother and sister, but more importantly, they are best friends. They feel as though they can go to each other for anything and really trust each other. Another area that holds a space so dear in one's heart is a girlfriend or boyfriend. If one has a special relationship with someone else, he is the one person who can know another inside and out. This person is the one who is going to be there to help another through anything that comes his way, and for that time that the two are together, they become each other’s whole life and they cherish the other very deeply. Then there is the one true friend who everyone has — parents. One might not realize it now, Top: Bryan Barnett relaxes in the park, contemplating a relationship. Time to get away from it all helped some relationships survive. Bottom: Dancing away is junior Ulrike Luenenborg. As a new student, Ulrike was forced to develop many new relationships with her peers. but parents are the people who care the most and are always going to be there. Kids can trust them and go to them for anything. Friendships are also very important in students' lives. Students need friends to share their burdens with or to just let go and have a good time. “Friends come by being a friend yourself, commented Ulrike Luenenborg. If students just sit back and wait for friends to come to them, they might have to wait a while. It might take time to make new friends, but it is worth it. There are always teachers in students' lives. They give up their time to try to teach students what they need to know. They are there waiting to fill students with their knowledge, and they care about students and want students to learn from them: then they should apply it. Everyone has relationships in his life, and if one stops to think about it, everyone needs relationships and cares for each one of those relationships deeply because relationships are the main thing that make life enjoyable. — by Jade Cooper 13
