THE SPONGES
I
like to think of humans as superheroes who have the ability to absorb emotions
of the people near them and make them their own. They could sit next to a man
burning with rage and soak up all the anger and frustration and needless to say
that they won’t be such a desirable company for the next few hours.
Isn’t
it a pity how such small things in our day to day life have the ability to
influence our mood. A small talk with a pessimist can take out all the fun and
excitement from all the tasks you have to do, all the events you have to
witness in your daily life. Its like we all are sponges. We sponge off vibes
off other people. Whether they be positive or negative. You may hear a lot of
people telling you on daily basis about how you should not let other people
influence your mood. But I find it the harsh reality that you can control that
only upto a certain extent.
Someone with an arrogant attitude towards life
or someone who has declared himself a loser is bound to break your spirits with
time. They say that you become what you spent your time with , I say words,
more truthful, have never been spoken. A pessimist is bound to take away your
optimism, a negative person will always leech out your positivity. You are
human, you cannot resist being affected by the type of people you have daily
contact with.
The
only possible answer is that distance yourself from such people. That is why it
is said to surround yourself with desirable people. It is said that if you are
the smartest person in the room, you are
in the wrong room. Keep the company of those who you desire to become, and soon
you’ll be competing in a league others can’t even think of entering.
