How then can we be free? How can we live in complete mental harmony ? How can we brake the shackles of shame showered by guilt of senseless sin ? The burden of sense is so severe that we are senseless deep within. How can we take the trouble of tasks and turn them into triumph ? How can The tic and the tock of the ticktock clock seize to be our foe? How can we live our lives like ... How then can we be free ?
"freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose"-Janis Joplin ... "Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better"- Albert Camus ... "Freedom is the last, best hope of earth"- Abraham Lincoln ... "Freedom is the right to live as we wish" Epictetus ... "freedom is the secret of happiness and courage is the secret of freedom"-Thucydides ... "freedom is the absence of obstacles to the realization of desires"- Bertrand Russell ... "freedom is the will to be responsible to ourselves"-Fredric Nietzsche ... "freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear"- George Orwell ... Free is what we are not . How then can we be free ?
In order to attain the true tenants of freedom we must first determine its meaning. In order to establish the meaning of freedom we must resolve the meaning of meaning. These confusing concepts might be a concocted conspiracy, or maybe it just is what it is ... Or perhaps it actually is what it was and history is nothing but the present. Thus the future will actually be nothing but the past and nothing will be established because nothing always lasts but we still have to come back to the basic fundamental task and ask: How then can we be free ?

How can we be free ? I wonder why you choose to mock us in this piece Owi. We lost our freedom when we accepted the new definition of advancement and progress. We lost our freedom when a narrow minded elite(in your own words)decided to manipulate a gullible public into buying their twisted definition of happiness. The irony of our predicament lies in the fact that the pursuit of this so called happiness has brought overwhelming sadness and despair. Humanity has lost its shot at freedom and happiness. We will die a lost people searching for that that does not exist. To hell with the meaning of meaning and to hell with the meaning of freedom. You know as well as i do that we are in too deep(your own words). I guess what is most sad is even if there was another big bang and we get to start all over again, a couple million years latter and we will be right back at the same spot. so FUCK off man
Wow it took you so long to figure that out...........well atleast good direction your thoughts heading..few more steps and i hope youll see what i want you to see...(that means youll have to become one among the masses)
The concept of freedom is so vague, it would take eternity and another eternity to fully grasp the meaning of meaning in this context. Simply put,we can only be free when we detach ourselves from the so called norms which were created to define freedom. Freedom comes from withtin, hence a relative term.
