Release the need for drama!

The soap opera aspects of our lives are like the waves that agitate the ocean without changing the inherent nature of the ocean. The dramas in our lives appear much fiercer than they really are. They cannot upset us permanently unless we believe them and act upon this belief. Become aware of all of the drama that surrounds you. You will be shocked by how much drama is imbedded into our lives, our work environments, our families, our friends, etc. The more you can detach from this drama, the happier you will become. This is why spiritual teachers stress the importance of calming the mind and releasing attachments to people, places or events.
