A Hug is Nearly a Gun Spelled Backwards

 I do agree with E.M. Forester's view that personal relations are more important than causes or patriotism. I believe that personal relations is more important because it connects people.
Patriotism just connects people with their country not his or her loved ones. In my opinion being with loved ones is more important than showing love to your country. Friends and loved ones will always be there for you, even through the toughest times. If something ever happens to your country friends and loved ones will be there to help you get through it.

Patriotism just shows love for your country and nothing else. If your country is going through tough times and become sad people you love and friends will help you get through it.  The country you love and support will never help you get through tough times like your friends and the people you love will. The country you support can help you with many things, but it will never be a real friend. The only thing patriotism does is show love for your country by putting up flags. going to war and celebrating the independence of the country.

Personal relations on the other hand is way more important than patriotism. Being close to someone is way more important than being close to your country. If you are close to someone they can give advise and help you get through the toughest times of your life. Having close people to talk to is good too. For example you can tell your problems to them or simply tell them how good life is going. It is always good to have someone to go to when you are having problems.

To sum things up I agree with E.M. Forester's view that personal relations is more important than causes or patriotism. Personal relations connects people and brings them together. Patriotism on the other hand just shows love for a country someone loves. Friends and loved ones will always be there for you and give you advice something a country you love will never be able to do for you.
