A drama-free 2018. Doesn’t that sound good? Say it to yourself a couple of times. You’ll immediately feel a rush of peace and happiness wash over you. Really. Think about it. No drama in 2018! And you can do it! You have to decide right now if you want to be drama-free and what you need to do to make it happen in 2018.
There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life. Getting back up is living. ~Jose’ N. Harris.
We all know what drama does, right? It creates soooo much stress! And stress can kill you. Some symptoms of chronic stress include: irritability, anxiety, depression, headaches and insomnia. It negatively impacts the central nervous and endocrine systems. It negatively impacts your respiratory and cardiovascular systems, your digestive system, your muscular system, your sexuality and reproductive systems and your immune systems. In other words, your entire being is negatively impacted by chronic stress.
If you are like me, you want to do everything you can to reduce your stress level and live a peaceful, happy life. How to reduce your stress level? Get away from the drama!
I know that it sounds easier than it is to actually do it. Believe me, drama is around us all. It’s in our families, our workplaces, our schools, and even our Churches and places of worship. It seems like you can’t avoid it. Notice I said, “It seems like you can’t avoid it.” But you really can.
You have to make up your mind that you won’t participate in situations that bring drama into your life. For example, the next time someone wants to whisper something in your ear about someone else, tell them that you don’t want to hear it. And go even further–walk away from that person if they routinely create drama. If you have a co-worker who is always down, and is always complaining about your bosses, your co-workers and everything else, you have to stop listening to them. You must walk away from that person so that your own stress level is not increased by their constant complaining. All of our situations are uniquely different and you’ll know what you have to do to get away from the drama.
You owe it to yourself and your health to walk away from the drama and the people who create it. Your body, mind and health will thank you for it!
Sending you blessings of love, laughter and drama-free goodness from Sterrett, Alabama!

This is SPOT ON (as chef Gordon Ramsay would say). No words could be truer. I have lived and still often live with the pathetic drama that surrounds us. And don’t get me started on the putrid stress and depression and severe illness that DOES result from drama. It can stem from kids, neighbors, former co-workers and administrators, 20-something collection agency twerps and twerpettes, Satan of course, etc. Pray!
Thank you.
