Oh the drama! 8/9/2017 12:33:27 PM
I've come to a point in my life that I only like my drama in movies...and I prefer it to be funny. You know the drama when Lucy gets the conveyor belt going too fast and has to eat all the chocolate? (for those of you too young to know what that was all about, just Google "I love Lucy" and watch an episode or two) In my personal life, I've taken the rough road of distancing myself from those who love and create drama. Sometimes, that's one of the hardest things to accomplish. The negativity might come from a friend, a relative, a co-worker, but, where ever it originates, it doesn't mean you have to live in it. Every day is a gift and I've learned my gift is best lived happily with an overflow of positivity and calm. We all have our "things" as we make our way down this path, but, when we look at those "things", are they really as bad as we're making them? Are we looking for the animosity and complaints? I've found it takes a lot of effort to live in dramaland whereas the island of peace takes no effort at all. So, to those who dwell and feed on the drama...whether their own or someone else's... I say "Was it really a bad day? Or a bad 5 minutes that was carried around all day?" Stay happy!
