The entire
purpose
of life here on earth is for people
to be free.
Why then do we spend so much time
acquiring things to make us
comfortable and tie us down?
Our possessions keep us in bondage to
jobs, debts, situations and
conditions.
We spend
precious
time fighting with one another as to
the right way to fight for the
freedom we
want.
Women want
to be
free. We sit idly as men
control the markets, industries and
services that are
essential to our
survival. Women
complain that
men
oppress them, yet the same time they
believe the things men
say women
cannot do.
Men
say they want
to be free. The average man
spends
his average
day watching
someone else, wondering what someone
else is doing,
believing
someone else
is waiting for
an opportunity to take what he has.
What's
the matter with these pictures?
We will
never be
free
as long as we need
something or someone else to give
it to us.
Freedom
is a
state of mind not a
tangible
condition.
