Laura Alito Is the Best Daughter of a Judge Ever

We're ALMOST done with our look at the Alito clan, really. Mostly because all web-based evidence of their existence is likely to disappear soon. So we thought that we should get to Laura Alito's "Real People" essay now:

Far too many people get caught up in being popular and will do anything to maintain their status. They will ruin old friendships because the person was not cool enough... I think everyone should learn to value his friendships a little more because one never knows what tomorrow might bring and maybe all you’ll need is just a friend to lean on.

Full essay(lette) after the jump. Just in case.

Friendship is defined as the relationship between two people based on affection and respect. But how many people actually truly value their friendships? It seems to be a growing theme that most people take their friends for granted and think they will always be there for them. Friendship is one of the most important things that people can learn. They learn how to be kind to others, respect people for who they are, and most importantly to just have someone whom they can trust and establish a bond. Far too many people get caught up in being popular and will do anything to maintain their status. They will ruin old friendships because the person was not cool enough. The value of friendship is incredibly important in helping people grow and learn about themselves and others. I believe that without friendship—and the respect that is shared between the friends—the world would be much more hostile and people would only be trying to get ahead in life by putting others down. I think everyone should learn to value his friendships a little more because one never knows what tomorrow might bring and maybe all you’ll need is just a friend to lean on.
