“Freedom is the will to be responsible to ourselves.”
– Friedrich Nietzsche
Simple truth: freedom…..
I thought I will be free if I am financially free, but no not really, if you think about it there are many other things in our daily life we usually call “stresses” that take our freedom away from us. So to be really free you have to be free from suffering, greed, and emotions that drive us crazy every day. We make choices to be free every day here are some instances where you can practice your freedom.
You will feel free when you
- Choose to forgive instead of holding on to negative feelings.
- Love yourself no matter what.
- Appreciate what you have now instead of thinking about what you had or may have in future.
- Live in the now and put away thoughts of past or future.
- Are mindful of your thoughts, acknowledge negative thoughts to let go of them.
- Do the best you can to correct an otherwise unpleasant situation.
- Realise that nothing last forever not even the earth we live on.
Teaching ourselves to make these positive choices will free our minds from the draining negative thoughts which then ultimately will lead us to happiness and contentment.
May you find your happiness through freedom!
