the beautiful ego

We humans love dramas.

For as much as we decry against drama, it is something throughout our history we have come to love cherish and seek!

I have had many of my personal friends state, “Oh I don’t like drama.” Or, “I avoid drama in my life.”

Of course the mere resistance to drama creates more of it in our lives.

As what we resist persists, as Carl Jung stated.

So if we take an honest and gentle look at our lives, what areas do we still have struggle with?

Where does it seem we still thrive on conflict and thus create it?

Is it with money?

Family?

Friends?

Our work?

We each have a different area in our life that calls us to let go of drama.

For all drama is, is an old script running through our minds.

It is a script dictating that conflict is necessary between two people.

Or it may even be a zero-sum script, that only one may prosper, so you must not!

Whatever the drama is, I can speak from personal experience that it doesn’t feel good.

It feels more like going on this merry-go-round of frustration and anger.

The good news is, when you start to see the dramas in your life, you’re on your way to gently letting them go.

As awareness of the problem is a great step towards letting go.

What I would propose is taking a look at the dramas in your life, and see if you really need that script running.

See if you really want to continue to have those experiences, which are often cyclical until we release that energy.

Or you can go on a drama fast.

Have one area of your life that you go on a drama fast, and see if you can live without that drama.

And if you find that you can, you can also gently remove the drama in your life, by simply releasing the energy around it.

Let me know how this works for you!
