I've known this for quite a while. I'm a control freak. In other words, I don't like change. I find it difficult. Including in the lives of those I love. I find it very difficult to see my children or wife struggle with change. Sometimes I honestly wish things would just stay the same... stable, secure, safe. But... that's not life and that's not fair. It's weird, because I'm always crying for change! I think you know that much about me anyway. It's that I know change is necessary and inevitable. It doesn't mean I have to like it. That deserves a great big LOL. But, truth be told... I understand human psychology enough to know that my generosity, graciousness, compassion, and patience is the light side of my shadow side of desiring control. Do you feel this way? Or is it just me? |
