Freedom is my God

I need time to absorb the things I have learnt recently. I feel the need to do so, to rest and do nothing and not to fill my day with endless things to justify my existence, my very presence on Earth. It is enough that I am here, willing to explore myself and to do what comes naturally, not to follow blindly what others say I should do. There is no need for this and in fact it drains me of vitality, of passion, because when I “do” from obligation, I do not do what really matters to me and that makes me sad beyond belief.

I have no need of others telling me what I should do and I now consciously shun such people, since they drain me too, sucking the lifeblood out of my tender heart. No more! I am free and will conform to no norms, for norms are a rigid, set pattern of beliefs and actions that inhibit and try to control me. Tell me no norms, for I may spew them in your face, as they make me sick to my core. Freedom, once tasted is a positive, empowering addiction that breathes life into me; vigour and enthusiasm. From this there is no going back.

Freedom thus honours and nurtures my soul and has me be the very best I can be. Freedom is my god and God gives me my freedom and only it may tell me what I should do as it speaks through the feelings in my heart. Nothing else carries the truth. Nothing else is as pure.
