FREEDOM

     What is freedom really? It's environmental, certainly, and determined by the state of our culture and the state of our nation and our neighborhood, but it's also an inside job. We can be imprisoned by our thinking, our perception, our self-consciousness, and our fear. We can be locked down by limiting beliefs.
     We always have the option to free ourselves, no matter what difficulty we may be suffering. We can let be whatever is and stop fighting. We can stop fighting circumstances, and we can stop fighting ourselves. We can find peace by being peaceful. We can experience freedom by opening the locked doors of our hearts and our minds.

Insofar as I am willing to accept the conditions of my life, I am free.
