Binah

My best friend is my hero.

I really admire my best friend, Binah. She really means a lot to me because we have been best friend since we were 4 years old and until now, even if I moved really far away, countries away, from her but we still have connections. We also have been classmates since kindergarten till third grade and fifth grade. She is really kind, grateful, helpful, funny, smart, greatest friend I ever had.

She tells me what’s right from wrong and what’s good from bad. She tells me what are the great things and bad thing about what’s happening in our environment, government etc. She tells me how to help the environment from things that are dangerous to do like hunting endangered species etc. She also tells me what are the animals, insects or plants that I need to stay away from. She also tells me the great things in the Bible.

She is really a great friend. She cheers me up when I’m down or if I had bad grades. She’s like a girl’s best friend that I ever had. She stands up for what’s right and she knows what’s right really well. If I were absent, she would tell me the assignments and how to do them, even if it’s hard to explain to me. She is like a teacher to me. She even tutors me even through the phone! She is always there for me in every way she can and she supports me in everything in every way she can. She’s like a cheerleader cheering a football or basketball game.

She is really helpful and hardworking. She tries her best to understand something she’s having a hard time with. When she sees someone in need, she tries to help him or her. If we want to learn something she can do that we can’t, like for example, drawing, she would teach us how to draw. If someone needs her help, she would help us right away. She tries her best to have straight A’s even though she has gadgets already that distract her from her study.

Binah is my hero because she’s a great friend to me and to our other friends. She is really a hard working person. She tries her best to help everyone. She is also helpful to me and to others when we are in need of help. She tells the others and me what’s right from wrong and what’s good from bad. She is someone that a person can rely on in any way. She is also loyal to her friends and I know, as her best friend, that she can never be a backstabber. She is the perfect best friend. Okay, maybe she’s not all that perfect but she is the best. She can be shy, and very quiet, but she’s nice! She can be weird sometimes or geeky but that’s the reason I want her to be my best friend because she doesn’t care if her hair is messy, she doesn’t care what they think of her. She’s the best, smart, weird, marvel loving, geeky best friend I ever had! She’s a great friend and a great hero.
