RE: What You Sacrifice When You Choose Your Freedom
"We don't lose anything when we choose freedom. Not really. Things only fall away that are not us. So don't be afraid to follow your heart. What's true stays. Sometimes you're left with a completely blank slate."
Absolutely amazing quote from you above. I've noticed in my own life things that don't align with freedom, to me, have naturally gone away. At this point, I am a blank slate(mostly) once again. In this blank slate I am able to do so many things that I never even envisioned myself doing. All of this happened once I decided to start living without fear.
That's powerful!
Very, very true!
I think when those things fall away they reveal the us that was always there, exactly what we were always destined to be. Life without compromise is the only life worth living. Some people are terrified of that blank slate that you describe, they revel in the vapid soup of "misery loves company thinking"
Negativity like that is incredibly powerful and infectious, but so is love, tolerance and acceptance. You can change another persons life and mind very easily, you can use a gun or a bomb, very effective, So is a smile or a hug or an encouraging word.
Don't mistake me for some "old hippy", anyone who comes at my partner or kids will feel the full force and brunt of my tolerance. I would just rather live a good ethical, integrity driven life given the choice. A life that promotes love and compassion for ourselves and everyone whom we come into contact with, I like to radiate good vibrations, people accept them or rebel against them, free choice, right?
Take great care and have an amazing journey :)
