Freedom. -

This happens to be one of my most favorite songs.

The words rock my world every single time.
Here they are….

Imagine if we lived our lives like this every single day?

Here is the video if you prefer, but reading her words is a powerful experience:

FreedomWe build walls when we ought to be building bridges
We lose touch when we ought to be holding on
We hold out when we really should be giving
We hold on when we’re holding on to nothing at all

Freedom from fear of certain failure
Freedom from the bar we place across every door
Freedom from things we just imagine
Freedom from all that came before

We speak out when we could learn so much in silence
We think twice when we shouldn’t think at all
We give in when we should stand and speak our truth
We give up then it’s going going gone

Chorus

Freedom from fear and failure, hunger and greed
Freedom from jealousy, pride, anger, and hypocrisy
Freedom from everything we want but really we don’t need
Freedom from glamour, illusion and insurance companies
Freedom from atomic bombs and wars and penitentiaries
Freedom from pain and sorrow and poor pitiful me
Freedom from sickness and suffering, ignorance and poverty
Freedom from all bondages, freedom just to be
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, Freedom, Freedom…

~By Suzee Waters Benjamin

May we all live with this kind of freedom in our hearts…
