Freedom in the way we feel about any situtation is really the only freedom we are granted in life. It is through this choice that frees energy, creativity, and connection to Source. At any moment you have the freedom to look at any situtation in your life as a blessing or a punishment. It is in that moment when we are choosing that we welcome what is real, or continue to disconnect further from our Divine form.
Control is a way we confine ourselves in this blessed freedom we have. Many may feel that through controling their actions, feelings, and even situations around them they are trying to take the freedom of choice away. If we are constantly controling our environment aren't we telling ourselves that we really don't want to experience choice, or to allow others to make a choice.
A person of control really doesn't want freedom. They say they do, but the freedom brings too many choices for them and they become anxious. They love a government system that gives rather than allows. They will find fault in everything within their environment and the people around them in order to find a solution in how to "prevent" feeling.
Think about it!
