Daily Comment

I have been thinking about control for a while - since my last phone conversation with Andy, who believes that the idea that humans control anything is an illusion.

I agree, although I think it is not too difficult to control part of a thing on a temporarily basis - but is that really control?

I've decided it isn't. Control part of something temporarily, you have to admit, you don't really control it.

No big deal. What is a big deal is the illusion of control, because that is self-deception, and with that self-deception comes a lot of bad acts. 

Why is this on my mind today? Twelfth day of the government shutdown.
