Control is an illusion from "summary" of Mind Fuck by Manna Francis
It's a funny thing, control. We think we have it all figured out. We like to believe that we are the masters of our own fate, the captains of our own ship. But the truth is, control is nothing but an illusion. A mirage that we chase, only to realize that it was never really there to begin with. We grasp at straws, trying to control every little aspect of our lives. We try to control our relationships, our careers, our health. We try to control our thoughts, our emotions, our desires. But no matter how hard we try, there is always something that slips through our fingers. Something that reminds us that control is nothing but a fleeting dream. In the end, we are all at the mercy of forces beyond our understanding. We are like puppets on strings, dancing to the tune of a puppet master we cannot see. We are prisoners of our own desires, slaves to our own insecurities. And no matter how much we try to break free, we are always tethered to the idea that control is within our reach. But what if we were to let go? What if we were to surrender to the chaos of life, to the uncertainty of the unknown? What if we were to embrace the idea that control is nothing but a cruel joke played on us by the universe? Would we finally find peace? Would we finally be free? In the end, perhaps the truest form of control is letting go. Letting go of the need to control, the need to dominate. Letting go of the illusion that we are in charge. Maybe, just maybe, in surrendering to the ebb and flow of life, we can find the freedom we so desperately seek.
