103 - Can you truly be free if you seek to control?

from Assertive Radiance

My son recently got his driving license and last Saturday, he drove me to the movie. As he drove, I noticed how "out of control" I felt. Then it made me wonder how much "in control" I want to be vs. having freedom.For instance, if I want to be free, meaning being able to do as I want and go where I want, I've got to let my son become a self-sufficient man. This is a no brainer as I've been letting him do pretty much what he wants - hence why we have a great relationship.However, the driving incident made me wonder about my quest to be financially free. It dawned on me that there's a fine line between freedom and control.For instance, do I want to be in charge of a company where my employees are all lined up at my desk asking for what to do next or do I take the time to create systems and procedures in place?Then, my thought drifted to my early 20's when I was in a relationship with a very jealous man and I realize now how negative emotion can prevent someone from being free.From my experience this weekend, I realized the importance of self-control to achieve freedom. I'm curious. What's your point-of-view on this subject?
