WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO CONTROL? – Martin Pavey

WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO CONTROL?

I shouldn’t be surprised really.

The world and his wife wants something out of you but I’ve got something slightly different than that for you.

Engaging as much as I am on Twitter, you see the distilled words of people, trying to make sense of the world but falling into the classic trap…..

Trying to get other people to behave like they want!

Can’t be done.

Won’t be done.

Would you want it to work anyway?

No, we are all mini tyrants if we put our minds to it and it gets you nowhere.

You, yourself – get yourself sorted. That’s where it begins and ends.

As I interact with such people, I’ve been having emotional flashbacks to my ex, they’ve been quite strong in the last few days. 

Why?

Because I realise just how much I subjugated myself to him and, yep you guessed it, it made no difference to the strength of our relationship or the intimacy of our connection.

YOU have to be the one to take responsibility. It’s the only path to joy and freedom.

Honestly, take it from me.

Here endeth the lesson.
