How Do Relationships Determine The Overall Quality Of Life

Decent Essays
Near the end of the movie, Dr. Sayer reflects on Lenard and what was most important. The human spirit is more important than the drug. I agree that what needs to be nourished is work, play, friendship, and family. I think that relationships are the most important thing in life. The relationships you have in your life will ultimately determine your overall quality of life. To me, relationships that I have and have had, have taught me the most. Friendship makes life interesting, and teaches many lessons. Family shapes you into the person you are today. Both friends and family can make work and play better. I get so busy, trying to cram everything into my busy schedules. I need to slow down and make time for the people things that matter.
