Dramas: The Tyrant-The Victim-The Saviour

Dramas or stories, are simply adopted behavior created by an emotional reaction to events. In other words, if in early life we did not experience love, acceptance or approval,  very cleverly (as that was the only smart choice we could come up with) we learnt to modify our behavior to please those in charge of our upbringing. Children pick up things really quickly and they figure out very fast what is the safest way to be if they want to survive.  The downside of this is that this behavior or drama  then becomes the  'default program', from which we live throughout life.

The major dramas are the tyrant, the victim and the savior. We all play out these parts at different times in our lives, until something happens and we switch from one drama to another. Most of us are totally unaware that we are stuck in a drama, in fact we think that the way we are is who we are. I have called these dramas the trapping trio, because they trap our life force and the ability to be  our true self, to feel, give and receive love.

In chapter two, of part two of Healing Is A Daily Business, I describe and explain very thoroughly what these dramas are and how they stop us from being our true self.  Dramas keep us disconnected from spirit (our own spirit), and keep us stuck in fear. When we choose to understand what dramas we play and give them up, we learn that we don't have to manipulate anyone to get what we want, because we are finally free to be who we want to be, from awareness, self respect and self love.
