Drama as the enemy of peace

Polarity of peace vs. drama: peace~drama

“Peace is the cessation of againstness’ ~ Unkown, made famous by John-Roger

Drama is the enemy of peace. Drama and peace can’t exist as co-equals.

Peace and drama don’t mix.

If your allegiance is to peace, you do what you can to avoid, limit and reduce unnecessary drama.

If your allegiance is to drama, as Drama Queen; and, Crazy Maker, you do what you can to avoid, limit and reduce unnecessary peace. Peace does not get you attention or anything you want. Drama might get you what you want. A certain six year old boy, playing at the role of president, on his own fantasy TV show does this. Have you seen him?

There are no telenovelas nor soap operas about everything working out smoothly and peacefully longterm for all characters involved. What does this suggest about which one most TV viewers are addicted to?

Preferring drama; or, preferring peace — which choice seems healthier to you?

If “drama” equals “excitement” for you, your quality of peace has to suffer. Conversely, the more peace, the more drama and external excitement will suffer.

Drama feeds on reactiveness. Romeo & Juliet died untimely, tragic deaths. If Romeo & Juliet had each been a little less reactive, only a little more patient, they might have out-lived the drama of the moment; and, both lived to a ripe old age in each others’ arms. For those two lovers, their habits of over-reacting got the better of them.

Who’s getting the best of you today?
