Should we please everybody?

【参考范文】

Nowadays, people put more and more emphasis on interpersonal relationship. Some say that they should please everybody if they want to maintain extensive interpersonal circle. Some say that there is no need to please everybody and good interpersonal relationship builds not on pleasing everybody..

As far as I am concerned, I favor the latter. Firstly, as different people have different personalities, and if we please everybody, we will become very tired. Secondly, as some people think and feel differently from us, we need to hide our true thoughts and feelings if we please everybody. Consequently, some people will not pay attention to our thoughts and feelings anymore.

In conclusion, it is not worthwhile to please everybody. Good interpersonal relationship needs our sincerity, integrity and honesty rather than flattering and hypocrisy.
