God said:
天父說：

You are aware of the existence of varying Layers of Life. You play Life like a piano. Your fingers trill up and down the keys. Even the surface of Life consists of more than one layer. Even within the layers are levels. The lines you draw are by no means outlined clearly.
你注意到生活有不同的活法。生活於你就像彈鋼琴。手指在琴鍵間來回滑動。表面鍵盤就分不同的音。音與音間還有高低之分。你沒法清晰的描繪。

It's always a good idea to stay out of drama. Oh, My, how drama pulls you. How drama is a seducer, an abductor. Your True purpose requires that you stay out of drama. Drama lures you. You may like to get into the middle of it, engage with it when, all the while, drama plays tricks on you.
但遠離戲劇永遠是對的。哦老天，看它是怎麼拉攏你的。戲劇就是個誘惑者。而你真正的目標需要你遠離它們。戲劇極盡引誘，而你也願者上鉤，與之為伍，可自始至終都是它在耍你。

Drama is not to be center stage. Drama is not to steal the show. Drama is not an excuse for pulling you away from your work.
戲劇上不了中央舞台，更搶不到風頭，它不該成為你偏離正軌的借口。

Drama is not your purpose. Drama may make you feel like a conquering hero.
戲劇不是你的目標，卻讓你覺得像個蓋世英雄。

You may see drama as a way to be of great importance. Drama does not make you a hero. Rather, drama makes you a runaway. Drama makes you a playboy. You may like excitement perhaps more than Life itself.
你可能把戲劇當作一種揚名的手段。但它並不能讓你成為真正的英雄，相反，它讓你成了一個逃兵，一個花花公子。對刺激的追逐已超出生活本身。

Drama puffs your chest out. Drama provides a perfect opportunity for vanity to shine. Stay out of your own drama. Absolutely stay out of others' drama. Don't run toward drama. Stay uninvolved. You can be a good friend without embracing drama.
戲劇讓你自我膨脹，為虛榮提供了耀眼的機會。從你的戲裡走出來吧，更不要捲入別人的戲裡。別追著戲跑，保持距離。不熱衷那些戲劇，你會成為良師益友。

Drama is a conflagration. Drama makes you its puppet.
戲劇是慾望的火海，它會操縱你。

Exulting in drama is like taking a bubble bath. You just can't spend all that time soaking in a tub. You are idling there. Soaking is a diversion. Drama may be exhilarating, yet drama isn't the best use of your time. The dramatic is not a high level of consciousness whatsoever. Stay away from drama.
戲裡的狂歡就像洗泡泡浴。人不能總泡在浴缸裡，那是空耗。沉浸分散了你的注意。可能會讓你興奮，但虛度了光陰。不管怎麼說，戲劇的意識水平不高，還是遠離為好。

Drama is emotional war. You like to play toy soldiers. You like to get up in arms. No, dear ones, put down your arms.
戲劇就是情緒戰。你喜歡扮演玩具士兵，動不動就抄起武器。算了，親愛的，還是放下吧。

Get away from drama. Drama in your Life builds your ego. Drama is a waste. It lifts you up for a little while and then it lets you down. Drama is for theater, not for Life.
脫離戲劇。構建它的是你的小我。那是種浪費。它帶給你短暫的興奮，然後是失望。它是為戲劇而生，不是為生活。

You are not alone with so much attraction to drama. Everyone has to be wary of entering into a dramatic mode.
被戲劇分心的不只你一人。每個人都要當心走入戲劇模式。

At the very least, be aware when you are exulting in drama. Life without drama does not have to be dull. Dreaming and drama are two different things. Dream your dreams. Stay away from relishing drama unless you are a writer of plays and movies.
至少，沉浸在劇情時要保持覺知。沒了戲劇的生活不一定枯燥無味。夢想和戲劇不是同一回事。去夢想。不要從戲劇裡找樂子，除非你是劇作家。

Call not attention to yourself. A real-life hero doesn't produce theater. He doesn't wear costumes. He is not swashbuckling. He has enough going on in his own Life that he doesn't need to heat up his Life in drama nor trauma.
別總想著萬眾矚目。現實中的英雄不用自搭舞台，也不會穿著戲裝。他不用虛張聲勢。他自己的生活已足夠精彩，無需戲劇或挫折的裝點。

In drama, you get carried away. You get caught up in it. Drama becomes drama for its own sake.
戲裡你會忘乎所以，沉迷其間，戲本就是為它自身而存在的。

As you rush to drama, you may be focused on either your glory or your outrage. Do you see how drama and gossip may come from the same family? There is an excitement you crave, some kind of importance you crave, some kind of aggrandizement you perhaps want to see and others to see as your expanded image.
而追劇時，你關注的無非是自己的榮辱。戲劇和八卦本是一家，明白嗎？你渴望興奮，渴望某種名望，希望能表現得高大上，以此提升你在他人眼中的形象。

It's possible to say that investing yourself in drama is a high point in your Life.
為戲裡的自己投資可以說是你生活中最看重的事。

Keep your eye on target. Drama isn't to be your target. Your target is not in self-serving. What is your target?
眼要放在你的目標上。那些戲碼不是你的目標。你的目標不是"服務自我"。什麼是你的目標？

When you serve Me, you grow to serving Self. You expand your Self and the horizons of the world you presently sit in. You expand the sights you look through. You expand in connecting with Me.
服務"我"，就是服務你的"本我"，就是擴展你的"本我"以及你當前所在的世界，就是放寬你的眼界，連接上"我"。

Drama is a tiny momentary substitute whereas you and I together are the Real Thing.Together We reach the Heights of Consciousness. You and I together.
戲劇只是短時的替代，和"我"一起才是"正事"。我們一起到達意識的頂點。你和"我"，我們一起。
