Importance of Learning Foreign Languages
Learning foreign languages in the modern world is one of the most important components of the successful person. Knowledge of at least one foreign language broadens the mind and allows you to learn the culture and customs of other people.
First and foremost, it is additional knowledge that cannot be needless. Second, specialists with knowledge of foreign languages more likely get well-paid job. However, this is not the most important thing. The main point is an opportunity to plunge into the world of mysterious and unknowable, is the ability to communicate with people and the formation of ideology and mentality.
It is common to study English as the international equivalent of communication. But this does not diminish the importance of learning other foreign languages. Perhaps someone will say that not everyone is able to learn a foreign language. Sure! Unfortunately, the abilities of each person are individual - someone is more inclined to the exact sciences, while another one has someone more humanitarian mindset. But, of course, each person has the ability and this fact is unlikely someone will not agree. Most importantly is to develop, nurture and strengthen these abilities.
I never realized how important friends could be. When we talk about important people in our lives, most often we arrange them in this order – parents, close relatives, friends. However, I usually forgot about friends as I already got used to the fact that they are near and did not even think that one day it can change. But life has proven to me that I was wrong and friendship should not be taken lightly.
It happened to me that I hat I got sick and was in a very difficult situation due to health problems. My family was abroad and I did not have whom to ask about help except my best friend. She immediately came to my home with all the necessary medications and treated me all week until my parents came. I am certain that I could not cope with my illness on my own. This situation helped me to understand that it would be very difficult to go through life without companions who can help you when it is necessary.
Hence, friendship plays a very important role in our life. Thanks to our friends we can easily overcome difficulties on the way to a brighter future.
