And now, for your Moment of Zen…

In Buddhism they say “Don’t take it personal, your enemies are merely screaming at a reflection of themselves”.

The Art of Not Being Offended
www.lightworks.com
There is an ancient and well-kept secret to happiness which the Great Ones have known for centuries. They rarely talk about it, but they use it all the time, and it is fundamental to good mental health. This secret is called The Fine Art of Not Being Offended. In order to truly be a master of this art, one must be able to see that every statement, action and reaction of another human being is the sum result of their total life experience to date. In other words, the majority of people in our world say and do what they do from their own set of fears, conclusions, defenses and attempts to survive. Most of it, even when aimed directly at us, has nothing to do with us.

    I thought we were just Drama Queens?

    OH The DRAMA!I’ve blogged about it in the past, mainly poking fun at these overly dramatic people I was arguing with. (You know kind of how we’ll throw the term “Passive Aggressive” for someone who is too chickenshit to say what they mean, or “Stalker” for someone who visits your PUBLIC page more than you’re comfortable with…?)

    But Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD) an actual personality disorder, and it’s DANGEROUS for people who stay involved with these toxic people. I am following these message boards, and these people are drained and devastated, yet still clinging on to the hope of their “Epic Loves” coming back to them… as though they were under a spell, while they got their “Fan Club” convinced the poor schmuck is the devil incarnate.

    Sick.

    I can see why people with Borderline Personality Disorder and Histrionic Personality Disorder flock to the web in droves, drawn to web dramas, blogs, message boards, and to BTR shows for instant attention though…

    Bottom line is, don’t believe everything you read online, and look at it with a critical and skeptical eye, ok? Getting involved with these types of people can really drag the fun of the web down and suck the life force out of you on a personal level.
