Personal Drama

Send to Kindle

[This car­toon went out in today’s news­let­ter, with the follo­wing com­men­tary:PERSONAL DRAMA

Why are some peo­ple such drama queens?

Why do some peo­ple get so obses­sed with the little stuff, the gos­sip, who said what to who, who’s slee­ping with who, who’s no lon­ger slee­ping with who…?

The short ans­wer: Because it gives them something to do.

Life is short. You’d think we would have lear­ned by now, how to make bet­ter use of our VERY limi­ted time here on Earth.

Appa­rently not…

    Pers­pec­tive is a good thing. And a hard thing.

    Not so long ago, in evo­lu­tio­nary terms, we moved in groups of no more than 150 peo­ple, and per­so­nal drama wasn’t something we could easily get away from.

    As long as somebody’s preoc­cu­pa­tion with their own drama doesn’t blind them to the impor­tance of other things, I can for­give them for it.
