Selling the Drama

Friday, January 07, 2005

Life’s complicated – that’s a given. However, we make it even more complicated by wanting more. Man is insatiable. No matter how good life has been, we always ask for more, some more, and even more. How come we never pay attention anymore to the positive aspect of our lives or of what’s left of it? We’re too busy ranting, whining and complaining to even bother. It’s as if life has become an unrelenting saga overflowing with drama. It’s as if we’re trapped in some second-rate cheesy telenovela or soap opera. What’s with all the drama anyway? Have we already forgotten how to laugh every now and then? Perhaps this is a reason why happiness is so hard to come by these days. Temporary happiness? Still possible. Maybe. But real and long lasting happiness? I don’t think so. To keep us sane or of what’s left of our sanity, why not learn to laugh back at life instead? We’ve got to bring back the humor in life. In this day of age, I’m sorry to break it to you but there’s no more room for drama queens. There’s way too much drama in this world. Yes, we’ve got to cut the crap. If you don’t want to be eaten alive in this survival of the fittest world, we’ve got to stop all the drama and move on. Life isn’t a bed of roses or so I’ve been told, so get over it. Be contented. Learn to appreciate what you have then life would probably be much simpler and more so, we’d all be happier and all smiles now.
