Control.

I was watching this movie, and this dad was so controling over his son. I started to think about people who do that, including what I do to control people. We as individuals hate to be controlled, no? So why do we do it to others? It only makes them resent use, push us away, rebel. Now in some cases I've seen control and they don't do what I listed above, but they become dependant on that person. It normally ends up with them trying to get the controllers apporval, and ends in heartbreak.

But for those who resent us, push us away, and rebel. They build up anger start controling what they can, which can lead to abusing themself, not just physically, mentally. I can feel their rage build.

If you love that person so much, wouldn't you do what you could so they wouldn't do these things to themselves? Prevent that from happening? Or would you throw your nose in the air pretend it's not happening and keep charging?

I think we see the right answer, but so many look up so they can't see the mess they're creating. Someone brings it up and they walk the other way. Why don't they want help? Pride. Selfishness. Embarrassment.

I see this happen to people around me, whether I know them or not, I see it. It saddens me. I know that part of the control is because of a domino effect... they couldn't control someone, so they control that person, that person controls someone else because the other person controls them.

Open your eyes. Look at what you control. I know it's in everyone. Let go. Calm yourself. Collect yourself. Grieve. Start over if needed. Then walk out of the hall of control, take the nearest exit. Apologize. Walk away. Pray. Bring the inner streangth He gives you to the surface.

We can all do this. We have to choose to do this. Don't roll your eyes at this. You know exactly what this is reffering to in your life. Stop hiding. It's getting you no where but to have no one to turn to to give advice. Because you'll be the leader in which you've started your village. the King has no one to turn to because he is the highest in authority. Didn't even think of having God to turn to, not when you started getting the army you control. Because when you control, there's no place for God. You leave Him behind, but expect Him to pick up those other little things.

You think, "oh I can get these huge reigns, God, would you mind getting those couple of little ones? Thanks." You'll just get pulled into the freezing snow trying to figure out what had happened. When you know what happened, you just lift your head a bit higher so you can find someone else to blame.
