For those who live neither with religious consolations about death nor with a sense of death (or of anything else) as natural death is the obscene mystery the ultimate affront the thing that cannot be controlled. It can only be denied.
I think about death a lot like I think we all do. I don't think of suicide as an option but as fun. It's an interesting idea that you can control how you go. It's this thing that's looming and you can control it.
As long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant try to save your soul when death is immanent what can you do?
My dad has no control over who works with me. Me me and me alone has to take responsibility for anything.
My dad is still Christian Scientist. My mom's not and I'm not. But I believe in God and that there's a higher power and an intelligence that's bigger than us and that we can rely on. It's not just us thinking we are the ones in control of everything. That idea gives me support.
I have no control over people's perceptions of me at all and that's one of the things I decided very early on is that I can't control the way other people think of me. All I can do especially when it comes to my career is go out there and do cool unique kinds of things.
My legs are really long and that's cool apparently but I'm totally klutzy. I mean I'm like Bambi. I fall all over myself because I can't control my arms and my really long legs.
I'm a video game fan and I always thought it would be cool to be able to control a character.
Every ISP is being attacked maliciously both from in the United States and outside of the United States by those who want to invade people's privacy. But more importantly they want to take control of computers they want to hack them they want to steal information.
The great advance of personal computers was not the computing power per se but the fact that it brought it right to your face that you had control over it that were confronted with it and could steer it.
