Please do not give up your newfound path of positivity. The new people in your life, the ones who know nothing of your negativity or your past, can offer you a clean slate. They are just as important as the old people in your life, the ones who are celebrating your transformation into a positive person. New people do not have to be scary if you know that they can give you a fresh perspective on life. Never forget: everything that happens to you is in some way or another beneficial, if you allow it to be.
