Then the telephone rings，you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on the other end has a sad tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. You are still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel sad for a moment or a long time.Life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others' pity or respect.When you communicate with positive people，your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. When the knife of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that brings you down.Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, or relative. In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person, but all this is to lower you to that same negative level and they won't feel ashamed of themselves about that.Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of another at the start of the day can run after you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and takes your happiness away. Life is too short to feel negative.

While the culture of America is a mixture of different cultures, the Indian culture is unique and has its own values.One of the major differences that can be seen between American and Indian cultures is in family relations. While the Indians are very much family oriented（以.为导向）,the Americans are individual oriented. In Indian culture, the family values are more important than the individual values. Indians respect family values. On the other hand, in American culture the individual values get more importance than the family values.In another sense, it can be said that the American culture is more goal oriented and the Indian culture is more people or family oriented. Indians may even forsake their individual wishes and also happiness for families. But in American culture, this cannot be seen.Unlike the Indians, the Americans plan things ahead. The Americans believe in dominating（统治）nature and controlling the environment around them. On the contrary, Indians believe in the harmony with nature. Another difference that can be seen between Indian culture and American culture is that the Indians love stability（稳定）while the Americans love mobility（变化）.In American culture, one can see that individuals think of self-reliance. On the other hand, Indians are more dependent on others. While the children in the US arebrought up to live an independent life, the children in India are not brought up in that way. In Indian culture, there is respect for the elders and it is they who make decisions. But in American culture, each individual makes his own decisions.Coining to competition, Indians are more competitive than the Americans. Coming to work nature, the Indians work for meeting the family needs. On the contrary, an American will only work hard to rise on his own. Another difference that can be seen is that Americans have great regard for time and its value while Indians are different. 8.
