Complete control
If you had complete control over life, there would never be
any unpleasant surprises. But there would never be any
pleasant surprises either.
If you had complete control over life, things would always
go your way. But you would never have the need to innovate,
to adjust to unexpected, changing conditions, and to learn
new ways of doing things.
If you had complete control over life, you would be
responsible for deciding the nature of every moment, and the
actions of every person. But just imagine how tedious and
unfulfilling that would quickly become.
If you had complete control over life, your every desire
would be granted the moment you thought of it. But it would
thus be impossible for you to have anything to look forward
to.
Thankfully, though there are many important things you can
control, much of life is beyond your control. And it is that
fact that is largely responsible for the richness and
fulfillment you're able to experience.
Life does not always go your way. And in that truth is a
world of magnificent possibilities.
