What Is Freedom?
About freedom: It is all what you create, people find the strangest ways to lock themselves up while others find keys in the oddest places.
When I retired from teaching I thought finally a free life, I found that I was creating more locks in what I did not make me feel free. I came to the conclusion that freedom and joy are very similar if not the same. They are both transitory. When you have accomplished or resolved something you feel that sense that everything is complete in your world or freedom. You have it for a while then lose perspective, back to a more dense reality.
When I do not feel free or joyful I know something has come up for me to explore and transcend. The more of these hills I climb I get closer to the mountain top and a deeper sense of what freedom must be. Now I do not fear my limitations but look forward to unlocking them to find a lighter perspective.
