<h1>WHAT IS CONTROL?</h1>

I have heard people say "a man who loses control of his wife has lost control of his own life", but then you'd ask "what is control?” To be really confused, look up for the word in the dictionary. I pick up a remote control and I can choose to change the channel or just put off the T.V, I get an email and I can choose to read or just hit delete. Now that’s a form of control, one you'd find in the dictionary. However, it got me thinking, last week I walked into a cafe, and everyone is so moody and boring, it was like a burial ceremony, I sat down with my portfolio, looked around, and caught view of an elderly man at the far end of the corner, I smiled and waved at him, he smiled and waved back, so also the group behind him who thought my salutation was actually directed to them. And of a sudden, like magic, the place lightened up. Now also, this is a form of control. But not like the first, this is an induced form of control. I've always heard people say, "Be the change you want to see in the world".

The truth is, there is no perfect man or woman, and there can never be anything perfect which is a product of this world until the end of time, because here on earth perfection is an illusion.

However, beyond what is carnal, doctor billings offer this advice, "the couple must learn to love God more than they love themselves". Perfect Theory.
And for the sake of what is carnal I offer this advice. The couple must learn to be six things, six things according to what the situation and time demands. According to what the situation and time demands the spouse must learn to be to each other a
1. Husband/Wife and a Friend
2. Father/Mother and a Son/Daughter
3. Teacher and a Student.

Always bear in mind that marriage is not a competition, it is not about who wins or who loses, because after all a failed marriage is a failed marriage, one person fails, the both fails, and the children suffer. Rather think of it as falling together, rising together, crawling together, walking together, running together, and flying together.
Be in control of your life, your marriage, and your joy, but most of all, be the change you want to see.
