Drama Queen

OMG I know my fair share of "drama queens" but there is one who is hands down the "Queen of the drama queens" in fact this person makes other drama queens appear nothing more than drama princesses at best.

This queen will likely never read this and that's OK, who cares? I'm writing it anyway in an attempt to get it out of my head because recent events have dictated I do so. 

Through the grape vine I heard of the latest drama and I have to ask how much is self inflicted.  When we constantly put out "pity me" vibes you know what happens right?  You become a victim at every turn.  I have a relatively normal quiet life.  Drama doesn't follow me around not usually anyway.  I'm also pretty easy going sometimes to my detriment.  I'm okay with that because I would rather not live in a constant state of sympathy mongering and self imposed pity parties.  Nor would I drag my kids along with me.

The queen in this scenario is and always will be a victim because that's what they ask for.  They put themselves in situations despite being warned where they are faced with situations most everyone else would only hear about on the news.  Nope not this queen, this queen is smack dab in the middle of it because of a long series of really bad decisions.  This queen needs to rethink their choices and make some fundamental changes in their perceptions of the world.

Time and time again I shake my head at the events I hear about and think.  "Figures"  It really does, it's no surprise the drama this queen encounters, in a way I think they look for it, they attract it because with out the drama they are not the "special person" they think they are.  Believe me this person is a big time attention seeker all over the place.  One day it will bite them in the ass, I guarantee.

What gets me is this, when will this person realise that all this drama is a direct and indirect result of their actions?  Are they really that blind?  Do they really not see that they are in control of their destiny and not at the mercy of some unseen force?  If you sit and wait for crap to happen then you deserve all the crap that's placed in your lap.  If they get off their ass and make a real effort they can affect the change that is required to live a less dramatic life.  But then the attention will go away too.

Either way, this attention seeking, sympathy mongering, drama queen will never understand that it is they who are creating the chaos they live in and the constant state of "trauma". Unless they are willing to help themselves there is no help or hope for them.  And that's really too bad, because life can be wonderful and relaxed and trauma free and rather quite enjoyable, as long as you lose the drama queen persona and just be normal, or as normal as possible.

I guess, I was given lots of attention as a child because I certainly don't crave attention, in fact the more under the wire the better.  So to all the drama queens out there who might be reading this...really?  Do you really think all this drama is a good thing?  Really?
