We are influenced by the people who surround us, so surround yourself with good people. People who are smart and wise, curious and inquisitive, kind and polite, helpful and influential. Surround yourself with people who bring you up, instead of pushing you down. Surround yourself with these kinds of people and offer them what they give, so that they will want to surround themselves with you.
We crave human connection; I believe we all do, but do not be like the porcupines that huddle together for warmth. Do not be garded. Have a conversation face to face. Listen to people, so that you may be heard as well. Allow mistakes to be made and give second chances. Be kind to all and hope they will be kind back. Hug, always have a shoulder open for someone to cry, be the one people confide in but make sure to have people you can confide in as well.
Let your walls down, at least let some of your guard down. Be kind and thoughtful. Love everyone.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8New Living Translation (NLT)
4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
8 Prophecy and speaking in unknown languages[a] and special knowledge will become useless. But love will last forever!
Romans 10:9New Living Translation (NLT)
9 If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
