Enemy

I have had a lot of enemies in my past, especially in my high school years. Many have been my friends turned enemies or those that just come out of the blue. Some are even by accident like those cases seen in little kid’s movies. I remember one time where I ran into some chola girl while I was messing around with some friends. She mad dogged me like no one has before. Even my friends s5tarted laughing of how funny it was. Well because we were messing around they locked me out of the building. I decided to go around and sneak in from the other side. When I arrived there, they told me she came back with her cholo friends to kick my butt. It was weird how my instinct told me to go around. Well I didn’t know her at all. I’ve never seen her before I’ve never spoken to her besides the” I’m sorry” line I said when I bumped into her. I didn’t know her story. Maybe she had a troubled life. Maybe, I offended her in a way or something. The point is she was my enemy for that one instant, even though I didn’t know her at all. My friends have become my enemies before also. I may have known them but I truly didn’t know “ them”. I didn’t know most of their past or how they were angered by me enough to betray me. Well most of my friends turned out that way. I truly never had a close friend because I didn’t get to know them. So, knowing someone’s past helps you into not becoming enemies. In ways, you can share stories or compare your history with them. Maybe you have nothing in common but they need someone to talk to them or maybe you should get out of there way next time your messing around with your friends. I believed knowing someone’s past helped but It’s truly up to you or the other person to create enemies on your own. Even if you know them, conflict can abrupt. Gene Hoffman said, “ An enemy is a person whose story we have not heard yet”. I can tell he's a caring type but I believe he can be wrong on some circumstances. He can be the kindest person in the world but be blind to people who have hatred towards them.
