Some are born with it, some are are not that lucky to have it naturally. I was from the latter, I do not have control, I lose myself easily, burn out too fast when doing a project,distracted with other stuff too fast. Constantly hitting the bottle to save my face. Till, I met HIM.
HE showed me what I am truly, the reason of my existence was for HIM. Thanks to HIM, I can focus better now, complete my goals that I wanted. He taught me that all I need to do is to GIVE UP my control, my life was not for me to handle. I need HIM to do that for me.
The first few months were evil, they were hell, I hated HIM to the core. But HE wanted me to be a better person, HE didn't gave up on me. HE pushed me hard to let me understand that control is not for everyone, its only for a certain selected individuals. The world is always divided into those who are in control and those who think that they are in control. People who are like me need people who are like HIM to function.
My life changed when I met HIM. Today, I am a better person, I see that in order for me to be happy, I gave up on control. HE truly understands what is control. Slowly, I realized that HE loves me, no matter how tough HIS LAWS were, HE always wants the best thing for me. Thinking was not my function, my function was to serve, HE gave me that chance for me to serve HIM. HIS punishments were to make me realized that control was his birthright. Something that I cannot have. Not all men are born equal, some exist to serve others.

The misfit
Once upon a time,a mother duck was nesting,looking over her eggs when she decided to go for a swim. When she came back,she counted her eggs and realised that there were 6 eggs instead of 5 so she does what all respectable mother ducks do,she kept quiet and look after all 6 eggs.
After a while,all 6 eggs hatched but the funny thing was there were 5 yellow cute ducklings and 1 grey duckling. The mother duck blamed fate and continue doing what all respectable mothers do which is to teach her children how to quack.
As time went by,all of her ducklings except 1 could quack. Finally,she decided that the grey duckling isn't hers and discarded him at the farm as she thought that either the hen,the turkey or goose might be his real mother.
As the duckling enters the farm,he came across a blind wise dog.The duckling asked the dog where can he find the chickens or the turkeys or the geese so that he can find his true parents. The dog showed him where the Cocks often gather and so he went.
As he reached the place where the Cocks are,he saw that most of them are practicing their morning calls. After finding out where the Chief of all Cocks stay,he went meet him as all Cocks need to have the permission of the Chief before they could crow at dawn. The chief told him the basics and told him that he has one month to practice and have to pass a test before joining the group. As the month went,he found out that he can't crow like the rest,his morning calls are worst that the rest. So he decided to find the turkeys who stay on the western side of the farm.
When he reached the turkeys' tuft,he found that he need the permission of the Mother of all Turkeys to stay and eat there. The Mother of all Turkeys told him her rule which is gain weight before the trees turn brown.So he started to eat and eat and eat.He ate too much till he puke which is definitely a taboo in Turkeyland so he was exiled.
As he walked south to Geese territory, he met with the blind wise dog who asked him about his stay in Chickenland and Turkeyland.He told the dog that both places wasn't for him.
After reaching Geeseland,a old-timer told him to get into a squad and train for the annual winter flight cos all geese goes south for the winter and the only way that any respectable geese travel is with a squad. After a week,he decided that all these training isn't working for him and decided to leave the farm as he wasn't a Cock,a Turkey nor a Goose.
As he was about to walk out of the farm,the blind wise dog came to him and said,"Ur a swan. I saw one just like u when I was younger and fitter. U shuld head to the lake as there are a lot of ur kind there".
The misfit who finally was glad that he had learned of his true identity reached to the Lake and saw others who are just like him. He swam towards them,heart full of joy when one the swans noticed that the way he swam was funny,he swam like a duck.Then,during dinner he gobbled all the food just like a turkey which annoyed the elders.The next morning,he started to crow like all respectable Cocks do which irritated the other swans. When all the swan were flying,he tried to form a formation like how geese often do which is odd as all respectable swans don't fly in formation.
After a month at the lake,he decided to leave that place and find a place where he truly belongs to as he couldn't stand the constant nags of the elder swans.......

Loving stone
* For those who are were in mythology,Venus is the Roman equivalent of Greek Aphrodite.
In Cyprus,there was a man named Pygmalion who is Venus's master sculptor,most of the statues in Venus's temples were carved by him.
Although,he is a devotee of Venus,he never felt any lust for women. Some say he lost his lust after seeing the Propoetides prostituting themselves. His Mother and Nurse kept inviting women to feast at their house in hopes that Pygmalion would open his heart to one of them.But he kept to himself,planning on his next masterpiece for Venus's temples.
One day,he gotten orders to carve a statue for Venus's newest temple.The temple priestess sent him a block of marble. He worked night and day to create his greatest piece so that he could show his devotion to Venus. He worked without stopping for eating nor sleeping.
After a few weeks,he walked out of his studio and told his Mother and Nurse that the statue is completed. His Nurse wanted to send a msg to temple priestess so that she could collect the statue but Pygmalion forbid her,saying that he is willing to pay the price for the marble but he isn't going to give it to Venus. His Mother and Nurse was shocked at his statement and said that he is inviting Venus's wrath onto himself and he said that," Let all the Gods and Goddesses send me into the depths of Tartarus but I'll will never give this statue back".
Pygmalion stared at the statue day and night,even moved his bed into the studio where the statue was cos he had fallen in love with it. The statue was indeed the finest creation of Pygmalion.Her curves were perfect,her lips were succulent,her eyes were radiant,in short if the statue is placed next to Cyprus's beauties,the statue's beauty would dim the rest.
One day,Pygmalion couldn't stand the nagging of his Mother,Nurse and the temple priestess and his passion for the statue was driving him to the brink of insanity,he went to the temple and asked Venus a single boon.He pleaded and begged at Venus for he has done nothing wrong,his reasoning was since heteros and homos could find love,why can't he fall in love with statue.
Out of pity for her most devoted devotee,Venus replied his pleas and grant him his wish,She told him to go back and plant a kiss on the statue's lips and what is stone would be flesh.
Pygmalion rushed back and did what Venus told him to do and to the amazement of his Mother and Nurse,he finally found his woman.
