Freedom in Life

This is something that many talk about but few really pay attention to. Society has a way of imprisoning us. Many claim to be free but the reality is they live in total bondage. Nothing about their lives is their own. Their entire existence is spend fulfilling the desires of others.

Society teaches us to be selfless. I say that to be free we must instead be "selfish". Now, before anyone goes off the deep-end, I am not referring to being a completely self-absorbed ass. Instead, what I mean by selfish is a self-interest in one's own life. Too often we are taught to sacrifice ourselves for the sake of others. This is not how freedom is acquired.

For whatever reason, freedom is something that a person has always had to fight for. History reveals the struggle man embarked upon in battling foes who wished to hold him captive. The same concept is equally present today. There are forces in each of our lives that seek to control us. This comes from almost every person we encounter.

If you question this, take a look at your day. How much of it is spend on activities that you choose? Most find that only a small portion of their time is spent engaging in behaviors that are of their own free choice. For example, our work hours are dictated by other people whether it be a boss or a customer/client. After hours can be occupied by family responsibilities with children and spouses taking the lead. Finally, we know how institutions such as governments and other dogma promoting entities try to control what we think and do. In the end, freedom is only an illusion.

Obviously, if everyone assumed total freedom in their lives, society would be afflicted with anarchy. Total freedom is also something that is not readily possible. However, this is not much of a concern since most of the populous is adept at falling into line with the prevailing mentality of the day. This is where you are able to separate yourself from them.

Freedom in life starts in the mind. Making a conscious choice to look at all of your beliefs helps to move one in a direction away from control. This "rebellion" unearths how enslaved one truly can become. Adhering to the wishes of others all the time is nothing more than turning your life over to that person. People do this every day of the year.

I tell people to first determine what they want sexually. So many try to fit into society by maintaining the proper sexual relationship. We are all taught that we are to meet the right person, get married, and start a family. And this is exactly what most people do. However, we are seeing more than half these arrangements ceasing because this is not the path to happiness. The dogma of old might not apply to your life.

Therefore, look at your sexual desires. This is the key to your freedom. Do you desire something different? Are you gay or bisexual and afraid to explore that part of yourself? Do you desire a BDSM type relationship? Is the single path better suited for you? Or are you poly and seeking multiple relations at the same time? All of these choices are valid and available to you. However, they will be nothing more than fantasy as long as you are unwilling to look at your beliefs. These are the things that will enslave you. Breaking free of binding ideas is one of the major steps towards liberation. Consider taking that step now.
