7 good things the toxic relationships will teach you (and positive changes they will bring into your life)

The toxic relationships can bring a lot of pain and drama to your life and even turn your life upside down, but once you heal and move on, you find yourself evaluating and thinking about many positive benefits that the toxic relationships have actually taught you. For example:

1. Only when you lose everything, you can do everything (Transformation from pigeon to eagle)

The collapse of your whole life and the loss of everything in the fire took a lot from you. But on the other hand, somehow it gave you the wings to fly. The most dangerous people in the world are those who lost everything. Because now they can start over from scratch and use those wings to fly as high as the eagle. Remember, in order to fly like the eagle, you have to stop being a pigeon. Only eagles can fly above the clouds.



2. Everybody shows their true face and intention when you hit your rock bottom.

Only when you hit the rock bottom, you will be able to see the real face of every single person in your life. It seems that rock bottoms are like the washing machines. They will wash your life from every single dirt. The rock bottoms are like the brooms, it will sweep up dust from every corner of your life. You will notice that everybody who used big words in the past about how they have your back, the moment you hit the rock bottom, a lot of those people disappear like a fart from your life leaving you bleeding on the floor and they will not offer you help, not even an uplifting word. This is the best time of your life to carefully watch all moves of everybody in your life, because your rock bottom will remove their masks and you will clearly see who is your true friend and who is not. And maaan, this discovery is a shock therapy! However, it is always a good thing to exactly know who is who rather than living in an illusion for the rest of your life. Those who were not there for you when you have been down or even those who were too quick to kick you while you have been down are gone because you removed their asses out of your life as they do not deserve to sit behind your table and eat from your plate once your life start to be good again. Slowly you (re)build your inner circle and now you have only real people in your life.
