“Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!” Patrick Henry said this in a state of passion, but he meant it in all ways possible.
We seem to sense this passion going on all over the world, here and there. It’s a passion to not leave things the way they have been for a long time, but to move toward a new kind of equality, both materially and spiritually. Just think, what does this mean, material and spiritual liberty?
Could it mean a break away from beliefs that have little foundation in truth? To come to listen to what our hearts are telling us, not our heads? A new light showing us our unique way and a connection to all that has been created, an inclusiveness? Could it mean we think of others as much as we think of ourselves, sharing, helping those in need, letting go of our obsession with materialism and grasping a new flame, one that is of love?
Are we pointing to learning what we are capable of and finally getting a view of the possible? You tell me. Come on, now!
