What is freedom to you?
Imagine yourself outside the confines of this society and culture. What does freedom look like, taste like, smell like, feel like?
What does it mean to you, as you would define it?
What freedom means to me: Through my own will and inclination, I care for myself utilizing my planet which was given to me freely. I do this without interfering with others, and without them interfering with me. Freedom is not being chained to the whims, will, rules and laws of the dead, who decided in their lifetime how they wished to live.
Freedom is not having imposed upon me dead men’s desires for the world. When they lived, they chose their way. This is my life. I have the natural right to choose my way, without having to live in the eternal shadow of another person’s will, or another culture’s will. The laws and desires of the dead should die with them. Natural and universal law should remain. Their now silent voices are no longer needed and should not rule my destiny, nor the destiny of my progeny.
