Thankful for a classmate

I am not thankful for any of my classmates. I feel this way because I don't converse with any of them. I keep to myself and I never engage myself in any of there silly gossip and childish conversations about celebreties that have no talent. I like to talk with people who can actually give me information that will advance my knowledge. My goal is to achieve success in my life and I will not let immaturity bring me down. Thats my reason for not being grateful for any of them. But in every argument there is the opposite to address. If I didn't have any classmates then i wouldn't know if I was growing or not. We don't know what hot is without cold. so I guess they indirectly help me grow. So perhaps I am gratful for that.
