OOOOO-Kay! Let me think about this one. Hmmmmm ….. I like this. I really do. There are so many negative connotations in connection with being a “control freak” versus the other way of thinking, not liking to not to be in control. Huh. Nicely done, Colleen. Sometimes when I’m in my Zone I let go of control and embrace “whatever”. A time to collect and a time to reflect. LOL
Thank you Amy. I do feel like there is a negative connotation. I do like to be ‘in control’ but that doesn’t mean I am controlling. In my head, it makes sense. For example, I don’t drink alcohol. Mainly, because my father owned bars when I was growing up. I would see adults willingly give up control when they drank. That did not appeal to me. (It helps that I cannot stand the taste of alcohol). I am sure I could go on about this. 🙂
I too don’t drink alcohol, Colleen. The reason you stated here is one reason with many others. My Dad was an alcoholic and the nightmares our family went through due to alcohol, …. that’s another reason why I don’t drink. My health I will not jeopardize ….. I could go on. (smile) Like you. xo
