by Hayate Abul Digital Marketing

In our life, we face many bad experiences either at home, office or anywhere else. It really affects our psychological behavior. But we can’t do anything about bad experiences; except to learn from them, and if there is nothing out of it to learn, we simply forget it. Our mind is a wonder house because the mind itself allows us to remove or you can say to delete the bad memories. So the same human trait is featured in Gmail Account too, where a user can delete his or her account, whenever they wish to do so.
