One of the greatest skills you could possess in this world is learning how to deal with negative people.  People who insist on choosing the negative perspective, dwell on the negative, and feed off of dragging others down into their low vibration.

(wrong)   Dependent clauses are (and in fact must be) separated with commas only when the information contained in the clause is not important for the overall meaning of the whole sentence. A good way to recognize such clauses is to try to enclose the clause in parentheses; if the sentence still makes sense, you should use commas (or parentheses) to separate the clause ...
