I think people resist freedom because they're afraid of the unknown. But it's ironic....That unknown was once very well known.

After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.... -- Jim Morrison
When we believe we are losing control, we grab on tight. When our greatest fear comes upon us, we clench our fist and teeth, close our eyes and hold on. We must learn how to let go.

To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God.
