Control, powerlessness, ownership, posession.
I realised the other day that I often say things purely to be responded to with a "no". And it got me thinking about limits, boundaries and how good it sometimes feels to be powerless.
In a world of overwhelming choices and potential sometimes it's nice to have limits imposed. To be out of control. To have someone else take charge, take the reins and make the decisions, and in doing so, look after you. To be controlled is also to be put in someone else's posession. To be owned, even for a short amount of time means giving up the responsibility of one's self. And in that complete powerlessness is complete freedom.
