  1. She drove too fast for the conditions. She knew that but she did it anyway. She drove too fast and kept too close to the driver ahead of her. She wanted to get home. She felt like she had been in the car for too long today. She had spent more time driving to and fro than actually at work. She really needed to be a thome. She was tired, she knew that. But she was in control.

  3. Control it. Control what you say and what you do. You have control, you have the power over you. Self control seems to have slipped out of the fingers of millions and faded into nothingness. Get control.

I had this word literally before, that is really odd…but i said that i find that i lose control over my life a lot, especially as a teenager, it feels as though ive chosen the degree i want to do next year but i wish i was doing something more exciting seeing as it is my future but with perfect brothers and pushy parents, i felt i had to do something academic.

  8. what is control? so may people seem to abuse this word and i have never understood why? why can’t we control with love and acceptance instead of with force? where along the line of history did people associate control with dominance? control is a misunderstood term.

  9. I have none. You make me have no control, and I hate you for it. But God, I can’t control how much I love you. I can’t control my thoughts, my dreams, my words. I can’t control anything, because you’re taking over. I need control once again, damn it.

  10. It makes my mind go crazy going from thoughts to thoughts when i sit and think about why our world is shutting out its most needed substance, canabis.

  12. I can’t do it.

  13. Control-alt-delete. She pressed it. She pressed it again. The screen remained stubbornly frozen. She reached out and shook the mouse, but the cursor stayed, unblinking, in the middle of the word. The entire system was terrible – she hated her parents’ computer with the fire of a thousand burning suns.

    Choices, choices.

    Unplug it at the wall or hang onto the power button and hope the computer restarted on its own?

  14. He collapsed at the top of the crumbled stone staircase, coughing from the arduous climb. It was something unorthodox, unheard of even. But he was determined as all people should be. Pushing open the ancient wooden door, his bleary eyes focused on the three white-clothed women before him. They turned around, shock clear in their moldering eyes, as nobody before had ever seen them. From behind his tattered cloak, he pulled out his dory, and fear set into the eyes of destiny. He despised how they toyed with his life, and it was time for him to control his own fate by destroying those that held it.

  15. Control is power. I control all parts of my life. I control my tv. I control my video games. It’s easy. They are meant to be controlled. I can’t control me. My emotions. They’re free. They’re the opposite of controlled. I am the opposite of controlled. I am unpredictable. Compared to my television, I feel broken.

  16. Everything about you is control, you can’t even eat without having your fork on your left and spoon on your right. You have this ridiculous life-plan that has all these dates and places, and I wouldn’t mind it so much normally because it’s just the sort of thing you would do, but I’m not in that chart. I’m not part of your plan and neither was whats happening gradually between us. You can deny it and play dumb but you are uncontrollably falling, into something unexpected and it scares, I know it does even though you try hiding it behind a brave face. I know this wasn’t suppose to happen and I’m not part of your plan, but Im already under your control.

  17. i am one of those people who feels like they need to be in control of everything, all the time. its really hard to be in control of everything in your life, though. something i am just learning now. all you can control is how you react to things, not what happens to you. the tricky part now is to accept that and just let life happen.

  18. Control is good in life and its nice to know what you can expect

  19. Control ambition, you want to control what you can’t, I want everything in my own power of my own volition. what it is and what it isn’t has to be my decision. that being said I don’t want the responsibility, what I want is everything to be right. I want want everyone wants, and I only trust myself to do it correctly. Control freak. Untrusting.

  20. Control is something that a lot of us don’t know how to properly deal with. Some of us want control over every aspect of their and others’ life, and some people don’t want any control at all.

    I talk with a woman very often who wants control over everything that I do. She’s my girlfriend. She always wants to know what I’m doing, who I’m talking with, where I’m going, what I’m eating, what I’m drinking, what I’m wearing (when I’m not with her), and her possessiveness is scary sometimes.

    Its also kind of hot.

  21. Control is something that is only good when used correctly. Control can be misunderstood for caring, when caring too much. Control, is a horrible thing in my eye. Yet control is the most powerful thing, in any situation. That’s how I feel.

  26. self control. some have it some don’t. But nobody really has control over everything, or even themselves. They may out on a mask to fool us, but they cannot fool themselves. We don’t have control over life or love.

  27. One of the things that prevents us from world peace. People need to have some type of control or else they feel inferior.

  28. Sometimes I like to be in total control because I think that things get done better that way. Then at other times I don’t want the control I just want to follow a person that knows what they are doing. It’s hard to follow someone that knows less than you and is constantly making mistakes.

  31. I cant finally control my life on my own! i am so happy right now! I think i finally figured out how to have most control over my life: How? Got rid of a “boyfriend”. kinda sad how something horrible like that, can still result in something so amazing. But i am happy, and we are still friends, and it was worth giving up. My life rocks right now.

  32. we have no control. or rather, we do, but we shouldn’t. i’d rather have God in control. He knows what He’s doing much more than i do. things get so much easier and less stressful when i take myself out of the “control equation.” and yet, i still fight it? but regardless- i’m not a fan of control.

  33. Control yourself. Take only what you need from it. I hate control freaks. People need to just let the chips fall where they may. It’s a little something I like to call fate.

  34. Colors flashed across Mark’s eyes. He heard chanting all around him. Good and evil lashed his ears with their arguments. He didn’t know where he was, or even if he was. The world stretched and moaned, and he couldn’t stop it. Suddenly he fell to his knees and grabbed his head. He let out a scream to try and gain control.
    Everything stopped.
    He opened his eyes.
    He was kneeling on the floor of the hospital. Doctors and nurses surrounded him. His girlfriend was staring at him with a look terror on her face. Mark strained to hear the doctor quietly ask his her,
    “Are these hallucinations happening very often?”
    Tears poured out of his eyes as he saw her nod her head.

  37. Here goes nothing.
    It’s a motto.
    Running after something with wild abandon.
    Waking up in cars to a 5 am sunrise.
    Being bruised and battered and completely happy.

  38. I don’t believe you truly know what’s best for me. Wouldn’t it make sense for me to know what was best for me? I’m done with you’r silly rules and orders, I’m going to take control and live my own life.

  39. social control is an unfortunate thing. it’s hard to be an outcast when everybody promotes peace and doesn’t practice it. apparently peace doesn’t include outcasts. therefore outcasts will always be outcasts, cause then, we wouldn’t have people in control…

  40. Control is something that most people lack, even though they think they have it. I, for certain, lack control in some… anger… issues. UMM WHAT ELSE TO WRITE BEFORE THE TIME RUNS OUT OH NO ITS ABOUT TO RUN OUT <- lost control
