An Ambitious and Control Freak Dr Alex Tang
Ambitious and controlling is a dangerous combination;
a lethal mixture that lead to character blowout; one to rise to the top, one to bind others in their station; widespread damage with emotional fatal fallout;
Ambition is competitive, cutting down threats by the sword; sacrificing family, love for the altar of success; stepping on the fallen to rise high, binding others by the cord; support nourished by worshippers of the cess.
Controlling reduces people to objects, use and discard; puppets that dance to the puppeteer’s consciousness; managing in small details, manipulating with no regard; wearing the triumphant badge of self-righteousness.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, the meek; blessed are the pure, the peacemakers; blessed are the merciful, those who seek; blessed are the persecuted, the soul builders.
