Control

A controller doesn't trust his/her ability to
live through the pain and chaos of life.
There is no life without pain just as
there is no art without submitting to chaos.
-- Rita Mae Brown

What a moment of spiritual adventure it is to risk living through the pain!
When I do not seek an escape or a quick fix but have patience with the process, new possibilities often do develop.
I can only let go of my control - or turn it over to my Higher Power.
And I will do it and forget, taking control back within minutes or within an hour.
Then I will let go again.

Today, I will submit to the insecurity of a changing universe and have faith that I can live through the process and grow.
