A lot and I’m in charge!
Collectively, as a species, this [refers to a quip about relationships] is our emotional landscape. I met an old lady once, almost one hundred years old, and she told me, “There are only two questions that human beings have ever fought over, all through history. How much do you love me? And Who’s in charge?” Everything else is somehow manageable. But these two questions of love and control undo us all, trip us up and cause war, grief and suffering.
I need to let this one marinate for awhile.
Well, lil ol’ lady was wrong. “What’s your god called?” is fought over a LOT! Just sayin’.
That is so thought provoking- I love it!
“What’s your god called?” can be interpreted from “Who’s in charge?”, can it not?
