You Can Never Be Free
Many people do not know what to do with their freedom. As such they are prisoners of their own freedom. Freedom, when you are not prepared for it, is a burden and a curse. What good is it for a caged parrot to gain his freedom only to die of starvation and exposure?
Freedom is not doing what you want to do. That is called anarchy; and when we all do what we want to do, it causes chaos. Then freedom is just another word for having nothing left to lose.
We are all prisoners of our possessions. When you possess something, you have to take certain measures to protect that possession; be that material, love, status or anything else. The more precious the possession is to you, the more you are bound to it. You can only be truly free when you have nothing to tie you down to a certain place or routine.
Some would say that freedom is doing the right thing but what is the right thing? What is right for you can never be right for everybody else. Are you really free when you are bound to certain options? Is that really free choice?
If freedom looked like that, I’d rather be comfortably enslaved for only death can bring true freedom. And that is only if there is no afterlife because even then you will not have the choice of where you want to go. You will be bound by your limited choices here on earth.
Have a monster Friday.

We are all free to make our own decisions but not free from the consequences of those decisions.
get out a comfort zone. and quick.
just hope its not too late, would have gone December already but it was huge in snow etc there.
spring starts april only, might hop over to Thailand from there, hear those Thai girls are pretty aswell.
well, they are, if you look online. (jokes)
Welcome to my parlor.
Thank you but I'm not so dedicated at all.
Yes, freedom is a very important issue and speech is the backbone of communication.
We all have to listen to the music we compose.
BTW Do you follow cricket? There is a SA Invitation team playing at the Kensington Oval tomorrow. Will you be attending?
Those pretty girls are all models. only the best are on display.
If its johannesburg way, I stay far away.
last time I took a trip there, hit too many potholes, a fox, got a puncture at mignight on that long dangerous road going to kuruman. and car gun yielding hi jackers near Krugersdorp.
Although I did pick up a pretty hitchiker on the way back.
stopped there in a dark spot by the truckers in kuruman. she was pretty, but it was too dark.
ye, thats where I saw that huge military convey, they were driving day and night, then turned off into the bushes about half an hour from kuruman.
I wont say what they were carrying etc. but it opened my eyes for other things aswell.
For they are prisoners of their own minds
Everything on CS is free
hmmm no I have other plans remember? So no cricket for me! Maybe next time or better yet when you visit.
I think you just got stumped.
Help yourself. there is plenty more where that came from.
I dont think a human can change its spots, only temporary, or when forced, or totally cornered.
and if you dont stay in hotels moving from one to another, but renting, you have the landlord, who usually wants more than just the rent.
usually alot of rules and conditions, that may not suit your personality.
The will to...
Aha, did we find one of the main causes here?
