Feel Something!

Maybe, just maybe, a lot of our dramas are because we're bored?

I got a hint of this idea in my meditation today.

You see, I'm in the middle of a family drama. It feels painful, frustrating, indignant, and unjust. And I can't seem to let... it... go.

Every other thought is about how to communicate my perspective so that I can feel heard instead of rejected.

And here I go again, reigniting the unexplainable mix of negative feelings.

This post is not about "the drama." This post is about WHY we create it and how it's possibly related to boredom.

Whether we create mental and emotional suffering in real life or on social media, the truth is WE ARE THE ONES CREATING IT.

We don't even need a real person to get our panties in a wad. We love to take on more significant injustices as justification for our outbursts while doing diddly squat about it. So instead we feel negative emotions over "nothing." And because our lives are pretty great for the most part, we have issues with, "Life is pretty okay!" So there's this need for more.

We end up doing things like going on social media to "fill" the time in hopes of finding something to feel triggered about. Again, unconsciously we're so bored we need to feel SOMETHING. Anything stronger than NOTHING. 

Where does that leave us?

Well, the first step is awareness. Without this step, none of this matters.

Acknowledge that we're in an energetic slump, and that's totally okay!

Then we have the opportunity to CHOOSE something DIFFERENT.

That different option looks like this:

CREATE SOMETHING!!!

The remedy is so simple and effective. And it doesn't have to be a perfect masterpiece. Just create!!!

Whew! I feel better already!

I hope this one shift helps you!

With lots of LOVE,
Teresa
