[QUOTE="Kalahou, post: 702480, member: 19617"] Soooo tired. I hear you. There are times I would just like to run away from it all myself. No dear, it is not mean of you to want to stay away from it all. Their drama is not about you. One thing I learned on this site in the midst of much drama is to just [I]… Slow…. Way …. Down[/I]… and [B][I]Breathe[/I][/B]…. It became my mantra to quietly affirm “[I]There is nothing I need to do.[/I]” Soooo tired, there is nothing you need to do right now about all the drama. It is not your drama. Nothing you can do will fix it or change it, but will only drown out any of your own peace. Sometimes, the stress from it all can make you ill. That is not worth it! This moment is what it is. Make a peaceful moment for yourself. ... Wait ... Sometimes this is hard, I know, but as we keep busy on other things, one day at a time, we can find small things to become thankful for in our own lives, not taken up with the chaotic focus on others' drama. Removing yourself from the drama is a key to detachment from it. This is not mean. This is a loving thing to do for yourself, and for the others, as your attempts at some sanity and peace can only send out better vibes than would be if you were compulsively reacting to the chaos. If we practice removing ourselves from the drama often enough, it becomes somewhat easier, and then there may come a time when we can see more clearly if there really is something profitable for us to do or not. This does mean you do not care. Of course you do. But we cannot respond wisely to any situation in the midst of the drama. [U]Take a step back. Rest. There is no hurry[/U]. Right now there is nothing you need to do but take care of yourself. You are not alone. Hang in there. [I]You are going to be alright.[/I] [/QUOTE]
