B&W is good :devil:

The thread jumped around a fair bit yesterday and sometimes that's a good thing. I had to laugh at the "dicktater" pic. For me, yesterday was a good exercise in just letting things be. How often do you allow that to happen? I think we all want to have some semblance of order and control in our lives, adjusting and readjusting as things develop. But how often do you just let things happen? Is it therapeutic for you or does it just add more stress?
 
I like to control things. A lot. So, letting things be... It's just not my cup of tea. Id rather control and boss.
 
I'm in control of so much at work that I tend to just let things roll in my personal life. It gives me some much needed balance.
 
Chaos, Anarchy!! that's how I roll!

Actually, that is not at all how I roll😛 For me it is situational. At work, I have to control a lot and to an extent in my personal life as well just to keep the machine running smoothly. When I travel, a loose plan is great but more often than not I wing it, go where the wind takes me.
As I have gotten older ( and so much wiser obviously;) ) I am finding I am able to hand over the reigns a little easier and have learned the only thing I can truly control is my reactions to things.
 
I have been called a control freak, and that I am easily upset when my ducks get out of a row. But when things get out of control, for me or someone else, guess who is usually the one to fix things or clean up the mess? So maybe I do have a point....
 
Those things I can control I tend to keep under a rather tight discipline. Those things I can't control, I roll with. Knowing which is which gives me inner peace.
 
I don't care for The Beatles. John Lennon, on the other hand, is a different story. Anyway, the funny thing about that is that 2 out of 3 of my most favorite songs in the entire world are from The Beatles, obviously because of their meaning: "All You Need Is Love" and "Let It Be".

Courtesy of a stranger/blogger on the internet, this is a close description of what I practice in my life because I believe wholeheartedly that it brings the opposite of stress. It brings peace. I know because I have experienced it time and time again:

Surrender literally means to stop fighting. Stop fighting with yourself. Stop fighting the universe and the natural flow of things. Stop resisting and pushing against reality.

Surrender = Complete acceptance of what is + Faith that all is well, even without my input.

It’s not about inaction. It’s about taking action from that place of surrender energy.

My resistance doesn't normally manifest itself in attempts to control a situation outwardly, but it comes in the form of worry. Something came up last night, a decision that was made by my SO, one that I know will greatly affect our life and the lives of those we are closest to. I couldn't see anything but the negativity in the situation and my fear (my ego) of the outcome. I couldn't sleep. My mind was resisting, so I prayed for wisdom and guidance.

I've been coming to this thread almost every morning faithfully for what seems close to probably 2 years now. Even when I haven't participated for a period of time, I've still been here and I've read and reflected on every question. This question this morning was my answer. I prayed for an answer and I got one. I am beyond grateful and at peace right now.

I am the opposite of that.

I really dont care about control one way or another. I am not the mom who needs to be team mom or room mom. I am a-ok giving up all control NOT as in subbing (I'm so not a sub) but as in I just dont care where we eat, or where we park, or what you wear. I think it goes hand in had with being more laid back about life in general. :rose:

I agree. Those little things don't mean a damn thing in the big picture.
Plus, I'm tired of all the tolerance preaching and all the asses in this world that get offended at every little thing.
Control? Go fuck yourself!

Honestly- If you tell me I must do something; I'll do precisely the opposite (usually).

I think you should invite Pmann over for dinner and teach him how to formulate detailed opinions regarding his life. A bit of objectivity, if you will.

The universe works in strange ways. I'm glad Papa Chain's question brought clarity around the answer to you.

For me, when it comes to control I approach it this way - there are a thousand small things in life we have control over, that are truly acts of free will. When I pay attention to the small things, when I deliberately craft them, then the larger things tend to take care of themselves, in part because their path has been set by those small decisions made before the big decisions were even in the picture.
