One friend I try to enjoy spending time with is my best friend and older brother Mohammed. Also, he is my sibling. He is also the person I trust the most and I feel the most comfortable around. We have known each other our entire lives and our bones has only grown stronger over the years. We first became close when we were younger working on school projects together. One particular memorable experience was when he had an accident in ninth grade and he couldn’t write for weeks. I stepped in to help him with his science project and through that experience we developed a deeper connection in learning to support each other through thick and thin. When we hang out, we enjoy long, meaningful conversations about life, science and future goals. We also love watching movies, playing strategic games and sometimes even competing against each other in an academic challenge. What makes our time together special is that we push each other to grow. Mohammed always encouraged me to aim higher, stay focused and never give up. No matter how difficult things get, I enjoy spending time with him because he is not only fun and supportive but also incredible wise. He has a unique way of offering advice without being judgmental and his sense of humor makes even stressful situations easier to handle. Having someone like Mohammed in my life has been a blessing and a church every moment spent together.
