Living Free Has A Price

Do you live a free life, in all that you do, in all that you think?  And if not, what areas are frustrating, what laws bind you, what self limitations are swimming around in your head?

America has always been pegged, “The Land of the Free,” but can this actually be with the hundreds of thousands of laws, regulations, rules, guidelines, secret government agencies spying on its own people, collecting data, hiring an absurd number of IRS agents, and mismanaging the funds of this country, that this progressive government (sarcasm here) has to find all kinds of ways to recoup more and more monies from its people to just pay its debt.

Big brother is not only watching you, they are watching what you are watching, they know where your bank accounts are; they know if you have been bad or good.

 But, you are free, right, at least in your mind?  And you can accomplish anything you desire if the government would just get out the way, if you can be creative enough, sublime enough, inspired enough to get around the traffic jams, and the discourse, and the two sides of the same milk toast politics, and just live a free life.

 First step to living free is to feel free, to realize that a ray of sunshine in the blessed part of a new morning is about as good as it gets, then step outside before the shy sunrise comes  up, go look at the fingernail moon and single star igniting the eastern horizon. 

You are free when you place your emphasis on, “Valuing What Is Valuable,” when you play with the children, when you let the rules and obligations become wings instead of shackles, so as to gain the courage to fight against this autocratic socialism, the enabling of humanity by letting people find too many easy ways to get more than they give back or deserve.

This day, your freedom comes with a price, and that price is to reclaim it, to exclaim it, to not let the petty, myopic minds, the small men with big titles intimidate you, stop you from “The Progressive Realization Of  Your Worth Ideals.”

You can be and are as free as you are willing to believe, in all that you do, in your abilities to create, and be flexible, and tack in the winds of change, and inspire others out of states of acceptance, complacency and apathy.

            This can still be a free country where free people live, examples are still everywhere: Be one, an example, and actualize your most burning desires.

Just do not let the laws, the government, the trials, the circumstances, the negativity, the too easily accepted norms, hinder you, or stop you from realizing your personal greatness, the contributions you can and are willing to make not only to this country, but to humanity, to a world that is craving inspired people, another speech by Martin Luther King, any person with a dream and fire in their eyes.

Who are you, at any stage of this life, not to actualize your greatness?  Martin Luther King was 35 years old when he gave his, “I Have A Dream,” speech.

Be free and spread it around, talk about it, live it, become it, and take back this country, its roots, The Philosophy of American Achievement, and just for fun, go read, right now, this day, Think Your Way to Wealth, by Napoleon Hill.

Wow.  Reclaim what you believe you can achieve.

Apathy is easy.  Courage demands that your dreams become real.
