save the drama for your mama

I understand that people have drama. I understand that it will likely never go away. I understand that people like to talk to others about what's bothering/hurting/burdening them. I also understand that people will talk about people, regardless of it's right or wrong.

What I don't understand is why, now that I am almost 25 years old, do people still spread drama around like the common cold? Why, when we are "communicating" with those involved, do we push the blame on others? Don't we see that bringing more and more people into explanations just involves them in the problem?

So now here you are. You have an issue, you have talked to everyone and their mom about it and what has it really done? You have vocalized a negative feeling a hundred times over and now you have given it power to run rampant in your life and those around you. People have now had to choose sides and where there was once peace now there is strife.

People spend so much energy turning mole hills into mountains when they could be taking that energy to give their burdens to Christ and ask Him for help, for healing. Instead people want to sit in their stuff and splash it around, getting as many people as they can to back them up so they can feel justified.

I'm freaking sick of it. Take your drama and keep it in a safe place. Give it to God, no one else can fix it, in fact everyone else will screw it up more.
