So you think you're free?!
Hah!! Think again!!
That's what we're told. Told we are free. How many times have you heard someone say "it's a free country, I'll do what I like"? I'll bet you'd be a millionaire by now if you received some pennies each time you heard it....but alas, it's a dream, a falacy of something that's meant to be, but never ever has been.
Since the dawn of man there has been a hierarchy, and everyones been pitted against eachother for one reason, and one reason alone....to survive. Rituals have been held, and things presented to gods that ruled over the little people. They did things to please the gods, if the gods were happy, then they'd be safe.
Now, it's just the same, but we don't do it in such a bloody sacrificial way. Governments and laws govern the way we run our lives. They tell us what we can do, what we can't do. What me must learn, what we should learn, and what we should never be told. If you do as you are told, then you can live a perfectly happy life....but is it happy?! You can only be truly happy if you are truly free to do as you so please...I don't believe in a society such as those that exist around the world this can ever be. There is far to much repression. There is no freedom of action, no freedom of speech.
But you may think that your mind is free....your mind is far from free. In fact it's further away from free than anything else. Your thoughts are generated from a media outlet, such as TV, radio, newspaper, books....any of the rest of it....what you hear from these outlets determines what you will think about something....and yes, your opinion might be different from the next persons, and fro the next, but you are still fed information, that is often very false, or very stretched and far from the truth.
Nothing is free....there are too many dictators and dictated....and I think, or something has lead me to believe that I think, that it cannot now be undone!
