Freedom
Birds Have More Freedom
Americans have a lot of rights that people in other countries do not have, and yet, we live in a time where birds have more general freedom than we do.
The world is changing, and not for the better.
Veterans Day 2020
Because our, “freedom” has never truly been, “free”. Many people have lost their lives for our freedoms. Honor all veterans and their families, as there are great sacrifices made on so many levels.
I have friends and family members who have served this country. It’s harder than some people might realize.
I Am Not Free…
“I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own.” ―Audre Lorde
If You Really Love Something
“If you really love something, you never try to keep it the way it is forever. You have to let it be free to change.” ―Cassandra Clare, City of Ashes, page 441
Freedom Begins…
“Freedom begins the moment you realize someone else has been writing your story and it’s time you took the pen from his hand and started writing it yourself.” ―Bill Moyers
Letting Go Gives Us Freedom
“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything – anger, anxiety, or possessions – we cannot be free.”
―Thich Nhat Hanh
Freely We Serve…
“Freely we serve,
Because we freely love, as in our will,
To love or not; in this we stand or fall.”
–John Milton
