You wanna be free? You wanna be happy? First step is to realize that all you really NEED is food, shelter and companionship. Everything else, is simply a distraction. A means to a manufactured end. Plasma TVs. Covered patios. Ipods. Retirement funds. GPS units. Government bailouts. All handy, in some way or another, sure...because we attach value to them and MAKE them handy. The real problem though, is that we, as a society, have our heads sooo far up our own asses, believeing we need certain "things" in life to be labeled as a "successful individual", that we've forgotten how to survive. To take care of ourselves. We point fingers at the officials. We blame each other, the media and/or video games, whichever is more convenient to attach to the crime at the time. We have ceased to hold our own selves accountable for the good AND the bad in our lives. We have also overloaded ourselves with material desire. Driving a Ferrari does not make one a better person. Making $1,000,000 a year does not make one an enlightened individual. No one cares about their neighbor anymore. We build more fences than doors and until we stop doing that...we will never truly be free. I apologize for the random rant, but none of us have anyone to blame but ourselves. Freedom is a state of mind. So, change your perspective. Recycle your conscience. Stop being taught to chase and learn to LIVE.
