    Default Freedom

    The current David Icke thread got me thinking....

    What does freedom mean to you?

    I think it will have to be re-defined on a year-to-year basis going forward in the coming years.

    Ì believe there are very much layers in Freedom. For instance we live in a world in which we are constantly being bombarded with what to think, believe and want. Our opinions are constantly being targeted by propaganda, manipulation and marketing, advertising. One could argue this isnt Freedom. In a real Free society Goverments and Businesses would let people make up there own mind without the constant manipulation.

    Free will can only be as free as the mind that conceives it.

    What does freedom mean to you?
    The conscious knowledge and awareness that I am free to act in accordance with my will.

    The sense of a lack of freedom is part and parcel of the illusion.

    To me freedom cannot be achieved in this body because it is this body that holds me here. And here there is not and never has been any sort of freedom worthy of the appellation.

    The yearning for freedom is the yearning for our natural state, and that has nothing to do with a body.

    Freedom is something unobtainable, but in reach
