Freedom

Good Morning,

Many times we desire what we can refer to as "freedom". Freedom from the hectic paces of life, work, and commitments. Free to be and do as we want. Funny thing is that for something in such high demand no one really seems to know where it resides and even fewer people fid it. Now let me clarify that i am not talking about freedom as a country or national political agenda, I am referring to personal freedom.

Personal freedom does exist, but it is not free. You see, ultimately freedom is not based on external conditions. The freedom we long for is already within us. Freedom itself is independent of causes and conditions and is available to us all, we simply must have the courage to identify and embrace it. So today I leave you with a simple poem: A brief candle; both ends burning The endless thoughts; the mind always churning A friend to share the lonesome times A simple moment shared like wine So say it loud and let it ring We are all a part of everything The future, present and the past Fly on my friends We're free at last.

Peace and Love, Jim
