We all have that one person or people in our lives that are consumed drama, and they call you day in and day out to flood you with their drama. No matter how many times you give them advice to fix the situation, they never take heed to it and end up in the same type of drama. When they are back in the mess they then want to call you all over again for advice that you give again and again. That is what I like to call a negativity cycle that is going nowhere.
I used to talk to a lot of so called "friends" that would only call me to dump their problems on me. I would give them solutions to fix their personal problems which they would not listen to, and would be calling me a month later to dump it on me again. It hurts a lot when you have real deep problems of your own that you want to share with someone, but that person is not there to hear you out. It really hurts when you do get the person to listen and they can say is "I don't know what to tell you" or "Sorry to hear that".
I decided to get rid of the drama and negativity in my life. For one, I no longer answer the phone for people who loves to call me to consume me with their negativity and drama. I have my own burdens to carry, and I just do not have room for someone else's troubles that they are not trying to get rid of themselves. I am now realizing that my time is very valuable.
I no really care what people think or say about me. The false, mean, things family members and so called friends used to say about me bothered me to no end. I know they are not true, I know what kind of person I am and I don't have to explain myself to anyone. I have now come to terms that the battle is not mine, it is the Lord's.
This fast is really helping me get closer to God and in the process I am realizing what this spiritual walk is really all about. Thank you, God. Pray for me and I will pray for you.
