> {{You must firmly, absolutely and ruthlessly protect your safety and sanity.}} {{Misery loves good company, so if you are surrounded with drama, gossip and fools you may want to consider that you are presently at risk of becoming one of them.}} {{The real zombie apocalypse is the pandemic of drama and mediocrity.}} {{Troublemakers will infect you with the malady of their madness.}} And especially, i{I{f your positivity immune system is low, any exposure to a person afflicted with negativity can poison your life.}} You have to get these people out of your life once and for all. {{One of the fastest ways you can profoundly change your life is to rid yourself of toxic people.}} When you do come in contact with one of these people, run for your life. Get to safety. Meditatively and spiritually decontaminate yourself. Scrub down your brain with a wire-brush and remove their insanity from the corridors of your mind. Inoculate yourself immediately by creating a safe space and aligning yourself with healthy people. If you have to go it alone for a while until you find your healthy tribe and chosen family, that is fine. {{Being alone is much better than being around negative people out of loneliness or desperation.}}
