Do you stand on the edge of who really cares?

No I am not talking about suicide or depression but about being done with all the drama. Drama initiated from the media and friends. Drama induced at the coffee shop and other areas of social interaction. Do people truly want all this drama in their lives? To be honest I have enough with just my job.

It appears that every where we turn someone is trying to fill our lives with a constant barrage of drama. The more I look at the actual facts behind most of what is being thrown at me the less I see. Drama produced simply for the sake of drama. We hear words spoken or printed apparently just for the sake of manipulation of emotions.

Is the agenda simply to bring us to the edge of who really cares? Are we intended to get to the place where we are willing to throughout the baby the bathwater and the bath? The filters needed to discern or even reach for the facts hidden in the reports presented as information are harder and harder to erect and maintain, so overwhelming is the inundation.

If you find yourself there standing at the edge, pondering the “I so do not care”. I fully understand. This is where I am supposed to give you a plan, preferably a short one to guide you back from the brink. A plan intended to help you stand up under the wave of irrelevancy aptly named drama, but there isn’t one. Sure you could stop listening to your friends and family, turn off the news and ignore your prompts but this does not solve the problem, though it does help.

There isn’t a plan but there is a choice. The choice to stop letting you emotions run your life. Listen to your friends but don’t join them in their outrage until or unless you actually agree with their facts and perspective. Emotions are the driving force behind drama, the impetus to force our actions and create instability in our lives.

So as you look at the brink of “who really cares”, take a step back and instead choose. Choose to listen with your head and not your emotions. Make your choices based on facts and plans, not hate or “compassion”. The only true solution to drama is making your own choices.
