Avoid Needless Drama

Avoid needless drama and those who create it Never create unnecessary drama, and don’t surround yourself with those who do.  Choose to spend time with people who you are proud to know, people you admire, who love and respect you – people who make your day a little brighter simply by being in it.  Don’t walk away from negative people, RUN!  Life is too short to spend time with folks who suck the happiness out of you.  from Marc  and Angela Hack

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Something to remember for this morning-as your day starts, as goes your day.  I pray not to be the negative person in others lives because I allow the negativity to effect my life...it is a viscous circle...negativity breeds negativity, peace and happiness breeds peace and happiness.

It is so true that what you focus on grows.  If you live for the "thrill" of drama, the "thrill" of gossip--you just get more and more "stuff" in your life that doesn't feed you.  I have a friend that seems to thrive on "News" whether it be good or bad--I have found that mostly the news is negative and/or subversive at best.  I just love this person, they are funny, a bit on the sarcastic side.  Some people you can only take in smaller doses for your own emotional health.  At 48 I just don't care about drama anymore--


Philippians 4:8 gives us truth in how we are to live our lives and I am meditating on this verse every day to further ingrain the principles into my day and thought life

Finally, brethren,
whatever things are true,
whatever things are noble,
whatever things are just,
whatever things are pure,
whatever things are lovely,
whatever things are of good report,
if there is any virtue and
if there is anything praiseworthy—
meditate on these things.
(NKJV)

Have a blessed, drama free positive day!
