"Freedom is neither won through painful struggle, nor can it be forced into existence...to simply accept yourself as who you are, and as you live, to let it be. In this is freedom." -Zen priest
We as humans have consistently struggled with this notion of freedom. We wage war, create religions, and risk our lives for something so intangible, yet so important to who we are.
We consistently search for freedom, for answers, for knowledge. It is when we can sit back, and see the world for what it is, and see the connections that run through every living thing, thought, and presence. In it rests the One Source of All Life.
Everything in life is connected. Everything has a purpose, a beauty to it.
We just need to stop running after it. It is only after we stop running through the forest that we are able to see the detail within the trees.
