Existential Tuesday: What do you control?

Are you in control of your own life?

Your own mind? Your body? Your feelings, your attention, your thoughts? Your heartbeat, or your breath?

Let’s start with something small. Wiggle your big toe, and we’ll go from there.

Exploring the meaning and definition of the word “control” is always a fruitful exercise. Examining the experience of control all the more so. If you want to feel in control, feel like a GOD, this is the wrong conversation to join; but if you seek to be humbled by our collective insignificance in the grand scheme of things, look no further.

Who is even in control of this event?? 🤔
