Control.

Do you ever feel like you don't have enough control in your life?

Like, for example, you're at the McDonald's drive thru and you are ordering a burger that usually has cheese, bacon, and lettuce, except you ask for them to remove the lettuce. You can't control the fact that the people forgot to remove the lettuce, so once you bite into it on the way home, you start to gag because of how much you hate lettuce. 

If you feel like that, you aren't the only

one. 

The thing is, you actually can have that control. You just have to get to it. 

I, myself, am still trying to find a way to unlock that piece of control I am missing from my life.

Ok, so the example I used might not apply to everyone. Lets use school as an example instead. 

So, you're at school, and you're taking a test that you've studied for before the teacher even announced a test. When you take the test, you are completely confident. You have a feeling that you got a100. The next day, when the teacher hands back your graded papers, you get almost the complete opposite than what you were thinking. You got a 46. Now, as many times as you try, you can't change that grade. That is the grade you got. That is the test you though you did amazing on. Yet, you didn't have as much control as you though you did. 

This can happen to anyone. Even the people that have found a way to gain that full control. 

So really, can you ever truly gain all control of your life?

The answer is no. You can't. 

We are all human. We all make mistakes. I know, I know. You've heard it before. But even if you don't want to admit it, you know it's true. 

So right now, I just want to say:

If you are doubting yourself, if you are thinking of giving up on anything, don't. Everyone has an equal chance of succeeding or not succeeding. Yes. Even the smartest person in the word and the (not being rude or mean, just trying to prove a point!) least-smartest person. They have the same chance. You know

why? Because they tried. But I can tell you right now, the person that isn't as smart is smarter in some ways. Why? Simple. Because no matter what, they will always try their best. The smartest person might think that they already know everything so they don't try. But even with that, it's all normal. This is what makes us human. We all struggle. We all succeed. But in the middle of all of that is one thing; normal. And that's what, in reality, we all are.

Normal. 

Don't be afraid to live a little sometimes.
