FALL ASLEEP IN FREEDOM & AWAKE IN SLAVERY
Ever has it been that word-users that fall asleep in freedom wake up in slavery.
That slavery happens when word-users fall asleep in freedom is only half of the story. The other half of the story is the word-users freedom.
How does it happen? Well, freedom doesn’t just happen, does it?
On the contrary, it comes at a price. The price of freedom is coeurage and coeurage is not misspelled.
“Where is fancy bred, in the heart or in the head?” – Shakespeare
I’m talking personal slavery and freedom, not about the freedom and slavery among large groups of word-users. The reason is personal freedom and slavery I know from personal experience while the same in large groups of word-users are a different story entirely.
IF YOU WANT FREEDOM
If you want freedom, prepare for war.
Why? Because ever has it been there are word-users wanting to take your freedom away from you and make you their slave.
THE SEEDS OF FREEDOM
The seeds of freedom are sown by your decision to be free.
If freedom means anything to you, you must make that decision not just once and then forget about it. You make the important decision to be free once and for all, forever and a day.
Because like a delicate plant, the decision to be free only survives if you keep your word and take care of it every day.
WHAT HAVE WORDS GOT TO DO WITH IT
Between words and your response is a space.
In this space is your freedom to decide your response. In this decision is your freedom.
I discovered when I believed words, I suffered. When I stopped believing in them, I didn’t suffer. I’m confident if you try it too, you will make the same experience.
I can assure you once you get rid of words too, you acquire a great many wonderful new freedoms.
No word-users are more hopelessly enslaved than those that falsely believe they are free.
When you know you’re free, there’s no escape possible.
Freedom is a decision… and as simple as that.
