Liberation

I don't think it's important to be completely free. I think it is healthy to be free of your own internal tyrannies; to dissolve the self-inflicted limitations adopted accidentally or by coercion through your life experience. But freedom in general is dangerous. We are beings evolved to exist as a contention to pressure, the pressure of the world around us and its desire to return to nothing but buzzing atoms. In fact, I believe too much freedom drives people crazy. It's misleading and our instincts know it. If life is so easy that we feel completely free, something has gone wrong, and we can be driven insane in search of that something. Often, it appears to simply be that in our prosperity and search of comfort and freedom, we have taken away those barriers in our life that held our form. As no doubt said many times before, I think we need purpose. We need to be important to something, someone, some community, Completely freedom might mean complete irrelevance, and that might crush someone's soul.
