Control

Control. Something Humanity has always tried to possess. An ability, which if acquired, would dissolve all chaos in the form of slavery.  As beings of simple minds we have relished in the naive idea that if we get everything, money, power, family, friends, a home and so on, that we can control it also. Like playing chess with life. Moving pieces where ever you think best.

At some point in human history we have been given the idea that complete control is the only ability capable of giving the only true complete happiness this worlds got to give. Denial makes us forget that that isn�t how life works. Forgetting that humans are not the only power on earth. You can�t control the weather, life, death or the actions of others as if they were your own.

People have gone for control but they will always fail. While most people like the idea of control, it is only if they are the ones with it. Complete control cannot be shared. So with the humanities selfish flaw comes the answer from control.

Checkmate.
