Qualities I Admire In Others
Regina Zebell

I think we all look for certain qualities of people when we interact and meet new people. There are many reasons to admire others, but here’s a list of qualities I love to see in people. Whether it be my friends, family or complete strangers these are the qualities these are the qualities that just make me take a step back, and appreciate them.

1. Honesty

I love someone who can just be straight up in any situation. Beating around the bush is something I’m not a fan of. So when someone can just say, “Hey listen...” I really appreciate it. Honest words are the best words. Typically when someone is honest with me, I feel comfortable with them, making for awesome relationships.

2. Kindness

Being kind is always important, and when I see others being kind, my heart melts. Even if it’s just picking up trash on the sidewalk, I love to see people being kind to earth, animals and others.

3. Compassion

I guess this goes along with kindness, but I really admire it. I don't think compassion has to just be limited to compassion to others, passion to the earth and animals is a plus too. That may mean I love tree huggers, but I'm okay with that.

4. Authenticity

Being the best version of yourself and no one else. Being genuine and unique is so admirable. It can sometimes be hard to stay true to yourself in this crazy world, so those that can always be true to themselves are the best.

5. Passion

Seeing someone’s eyes light up talking about something they love is so joyful! Like, please tell me more about how you want to invent something super rad, I love the excitement of it all.

6. Humor

If you don't have the ability to laugh at yourself, I don't think you should have the to laugh at others. So, I laugh the people who walk through life chipper as could be, always laughing to themselves, it's contagious at times.

7. Simplicity

"Keep it simple, stupid" is one of my favorite sayings, and those who have the ability to live this way are so admirable.

I try my best to surround myself with people with these qualities, and if you’re a person that displays them, then just know that I appreciate you. I think almost everyone holds at least one of these qualities, and a very few that display each and every one.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
