What is life to you?

To me life is a time period where you experience different events and these events teach you lessons. Without experience, without going through the ups and downs of life you never learn anything. To learn you need experience.

Let me give you an example here. 

Science and Biology students study their entire life about DNA, chromosomes and genes and the different processes associated with them. But merely studying is not enough. Being a Science student, I my self have been studying  these things from the very beginning but I used to think of them like some fantasy until I practically worked with these things in laboratory. That was the day when all those fantasies turned into realities. 

Same is the case with life. People might be giving you advices, telling you what to do or what not to do but the only way you are going to learn from life is by experiencing it yourself, by letting it in and interacting with people around you.

Every person is different from the other. Some are good while some are evil and you are going to find it out when you get to know them. On this journey, we meet both type of people, some of them would give us the best memories of our life. Even if you part ways for some reasons we will always remember them and pray for them. Their memory will soothe our mind and heart and we know that they will never leave our side in difficult times.

While there are some people who will leave disgusting memories. We will never want to meet them or keep any sort of ties with them. Such people are toxic and by keeping them in our life we are either going to destroy ourselves or destroy someone else’s life. The negativity they carry in their words and in their every pattern of life will affect us.

No matter how hard you try or how much you say that you will never become like them, you eventually will. Because such negativity and toxicity never spares you. It seeps through your heart and mind into your soul and it has long lasting effects. Let me tell you how.

When you live with someone toxic for a long time, he inflicts you in such a way that even if you are separated from him, you will feel mentally unstable and broken. There will always be this feeling of despair that will accompany you. You will never feel complete again. No matter how happy you try to stay, that feeling won’t be complete.

So here are some pieces of advice that you must follow in order to live a calm life away from negativity of toxic people:

• Those who doubt your pure intentions towards them are the people who actually are cheaters themselves. They consider everyone like themselves; a cheat. They don’t deserve your faithfulness. 

• Those who try to hurt you, part your ways from them as soon as possible. Because those who care for you will never even think of hurting you.

• If you get a negative vibe from a particular person although he pretends to be good, always trust the vibe because vibe never lies.

• No one is more sincere to you than your parents. Never let them down for any other relationship. 

• Never taunt someone out of hatred and jealousy because God doesn’t like those who criticise others. Because he can put you in that situation in which the other person is.
