Drama


Let’s face it; most of us remain engrossed in activities that distract us from our spiritual quest. In fact, that’s precisely the reason we create those activities. Some of us are so good at these distraction tactics that we remain engrossed in them all our lives. (I don’t need to tell you what those distraction activities are; we have all been there and done that.) It is a part of the defense mechanism. We argue/ debate/ confront and like doing it all. Drama is our best friend. We thrive on it.

While all that is an individual choice, it creates a small problem for those who are trying to eliminate drama from their lives, who do not wish to play the judgment/ criticism/ competition/ comparison game anymore. After all they still need to interact with the ones who love dramas. They still need to wade through situations that carry anger, hatred, envy etc.

So, what is the solution? What works for you?

I use isolation, dis-engagement, plain honest talk, silence, smiles, and Ho’oponopono……..and that works for me......:)
