- While we were growing up, how often have we not heard the maxim birds of the same feather flock together denoting in no uncertain terms how human beings find affinity with similar personalities. As we are aware, there are defined characteristic traits in humans attracting like-minded people to bond over strongly over a period of time. Not that there will be no disagreements or dislikes between such personalities, but the overwhelming feelings of camaraderie existing between them override other aspects so conveniently. The beauty underlying the very human existence is its oceanic dissimilarities between any two individual(s) even though appearing to be similar in more ways than one.

- Herein lies the as yet unexplored aspects of human thought processes which assume unique proportions to every single being. As our DNA is unique in its genomic sequences, so in the deeper recess of mind too that cannot be easily deduced based on available evidence. No wonder, despite traversing exponentially over the millennium on the back of mind-blowing technological developments witnessed along the way, none of the acclaimed human mind and behavioral experts have accurately succeeded in decoding the labyrinthine brain. Nonetheless, whatever little discovery made so far does reveal that like attracts like forging a formidable bond for life.
- Undoubtedly, there is an immense value attached to what our elders, parents, teachers, and religious exponents, and the ilk have advocated for long to only associate with good people who have level heads on their shoulders. People upholding the virtues of honesty, integrity, loyalty, dedication, commitment, discipline, determination, positive, cheerful, and similar such traits are bound to evoke not only admiration but also unencumbered following as well. Not for nothing, it is mentioned that we should surround ourselves with virtuous persons who will never hesitate to call spade a spade rather than those who wish to care less about life values so crucial to living in a dignified manner.

- This is where the real power of the association comes to the fore. There are innumerable instances available signifying the greatest value of having good people surrounding us. The moot point to ponder over here is not what we get from associating ourselves with people of high morality but to honestly observe how we transform ourselves into better human beings because of them. No disputing the fact that evolved people with a clarity of mind based on years of leading disciplined positive lives disperse such positivity and refreshing vibes that nearby people too will be certainly affected to emerge even better through mere association itself.
- The aura encircling people with a positive bent of mind may not be seen through naked eyes but can be definitely experienced by simply remaining close to them. Make no mistake, the power of association can make or break us as the case may be. As such, why not choose our associates more judiciously to lead an enthralling life envied by others rather than self-destruct ourselves by picking up worthless souls as our friends. Of course, the choice is ours and yours alone! Blaming others, the environment, situations, circumstances, god, and everything else will only prove our worthless existence amounting to nothing.
