What causes us to drift away from the real us?

Social erosion

Unlike soil erosion, which is removal of the fertile layer of soil due to external factors, social erosion is removal of the good and happiness inside us due to the outside factors. The little part inside us which keeps us motivated for being happy and carefree about the outside world dies slowly when someone around acts like pollutant by being a complete demotivational. Telling things which you often don't realise but when you do you can't stop thinking about it. The most outrageous fact is that when any such thing happens then one starts questioning its own existence and becomes a part of the dull world of unfaithfulness, disturbance and grief. The self is strong enough to handle one or two such person but when the intensity rises, it cause erosion effect within us and leaves us bare. Such people who caused this unwanted situations are the main cause for social erosion. 

Social erosion, is according to me, when you loose a part of yourself and turn dark. When you are called what you are not, when you are treated how you aren't supposed to be, when you aren't let to live your life as you like or when you are pushed alot then you are a victim of this phenomenon. But others who seek pleasure in doing such to a person, are the cause of damage. And to the most disturbing part is that that there isn't a good part of this. I am speaking from experience. People who are the victim are never capable to rise from their own debris, until there comes someone special or another traveller of life who accidentally shows you the real potential of yourself. People who become the cause of social erosion never stop, being annoying, demotivating or just pessimistic. They don't realise what they are doing untill they are near end of time, which then makes them repent. But in most cases these kind of people never stop, they will never understand the harm they cause and even if someone understand, they will just ignore the condition of the person in front. 

If I were to give examples of such people then it would be, in a broad sense, the society. As we are taught to keep three things in mind before doing anything, firstly, what will your parents and family think if you do it, secondly, what the society will think if you do it and thirdly, what will you think of yourself if you do it. And the funny part is that even before you the society comes in play and judges you. I really hate those people who will judge you in any and everything you do. These judgemental people fall under the social erosion category as well.
