Interesting Article. I didnt write it, but I like it. Not directed toward any one person. Just a good observation
Many people live a life full of drama. There seems to be always some type of drama happening in their life. It is interesting to for me to observe people who live a life of drama. Outwardly people who live a life full of drama, claim to hate all of the drama and the stress that comes with it, however when you watch what is going on, you will often notice that they create much of the drama in their life. It may sometimes be subtle, however the catalyst for this drama in their life, often is themselves!
Why would one create drama in their life? Isn’t there enough drama that just happens as part of life, why would we want more? When we look at what we are exposed to on a daily basis, through TV shows, Movies, the daily news, steamy novels, it’s easy to discern why some people become drama junkies. The news and most TV shows are built around drama. Drama is entertaining to us when it is “someone elses’s” drama. That is why shows like “Desperate Housewife’s” and “Reality Shows” areso very popular, year’s ago it was “Dallas” and “Dynasty”. Soap operas have been around for years and are totally based on drama. We eat these types of programs up, we anxiously tune in or pick up the next novel to see the continuation of the drama, it’s fun, it’s entertaining, it’s also somewhat insidious in what affect it can have on our personal life.
We begin to think if we do not have drama in our life, then we simply must be missing something. Our life is boring, what do we have to talk about, if we don’t have something to bitch about in our life? What meaning would life have without all of the drama? This is why many people become drama junkies. Even when a everything is going great, life is peaceful and everything is going our way, a “Drama Junkie” is looking for ways to create drama or at the very least manifesting drama by thinking, “okay, things have been going too smoothly for too long, something is going to happen, I can just feel it”. Guess what, with that thinking, a person will attract drama into their life. After all, despite what the drama junkie might outwardly say, they desired the drama in the first place.
This unneeded drama in life creates stress and unravels relationships. Even when a person does get to the point where they realize they must break the pattern of drama in their life, they may mourn the drama. To reduce or to remove drama from some peoples life is a major change and it takes a period of adjustment. When the drama is gone then it must be replaced with some other type of emotions and activities. For a drama junkie, this is a very critical point of awareness.
Truth is our spiritual self does not need the drama. Our spiritual self is peace, is love, is the light and the most powerful energy there is. As we become more aware of our true self, we will have less and less desire for drama in our life. We will even get to the point where we develop a very low tolerance level for any drama.
To live in love is to live in peace and harmony.
What drama do you have in your life today?
Are you doing, saying, thinking thoughts which contribute to the perpetuation of drama in your life?
What shift in your thoughts, words, actions need to change to reduce/eliminate the drama in your life?
It is important to ask these questions of yourself to create more self awareness.
