What is Positive? What is not?

This is a post that is supposed to be insightful and helpful. In all ways it's true, but is it positive? Why does such a negative feeling come with the word "drama"? I mean really, everyone's life is an ACT no matter what you might think to the contrary. Everyone's physical life is an acting out of their thoughts and feelings. Some like to try and blame the act of their life on other people or on circumstance, for all the good that does. It just makes you a victim and reliant on things outside of yourself that are somehow supposed to bring you the inner happiness you seek.

Anyway, stated this way as this image has it just feels so negative and not the least bit positive or uplifting. If I was not as far along in my own thinking that I am, reading something like this would not bring me to or even point me in the direction of where I am now. The way this is stated advises nothing. It only points out the obvious in a derogatory way. It's almost like sticking out your tongue at someone who may not have yet learned this. It's like the grade 12 student taunting the grade 1 student because they know 2x=y when the other doesn't get why there would be any letters involved in doing math! Do they deserve scorn because they don't know algebra? Or do they deserve education?

My comment on the Facebook post is:

"We all create our own karma: the good, the bad and the ugly, so this is true for everyone not just those who are labelled dramatic."

At least that is advice helpful to all and against no one :)
