Where’s that remote?
We love to be the one with the remote. Right?
In spite of our attachment to the remote, there are some occasions where we seem to willingly give it away. It happens with our emotions. It’s like we have an emotional remote control and we allow it to be in the hands of some other person. That person then seems to have almost complete control over what we feel, when and how much. Or maybe we are the one that seems to be handed the emotional remote control every time that person comes around. We feel horrible if we can’t find the right channel, and we usually can’t.
