People create communities where feel they are welcome. But friendship can change into love if people fall in love with each other.

The relationships between the old and the young generation are the objects of many discussions. The older say that the young people have no sense of responsibility today. They often criticize the way how the young people dress and behave. On the other hand many young people think that the older can't understand them and that they themselves must be absolutely different than their parents. We don΄t agree with them for many times. Our opinions differ, our ideas differ, our feelings and interests differ so much as well. This is called „generation gap“. Twenty or thirty years make one generation and each generation has its own problems with somebody or something.
