character.

Human character-

Character is the expression of the personality of a human being, and that it reveals itself in his conduct. In this sense every man has a character.

Can we mould someone to be the person we want them to be?

Character is considered the total sum of different ways we react and interact with others. and 3 determinants, namely situation that we're in, heredity, and environment that shaped us to who we really are.

Heredity and environment are the 2 main factors that shape our personality. Situation, on the other hand, is being nutured after any permanent changes take place. that is to say, experiences change you and your thinking and made you a better person.

A pair of twins, with the same heredity, are separated and being raised by 2 vastly different families can be very different still. The values being inculcated, the teachings and all, a few to be mentioned.

The main bottom line is, if the above underlined were to be true, perhaps we need to reevaluate the people around us. If we're born with our character, then not all people that we have met can be nutured to be friendships afterall.
