Everyone wants to feel they are in control of their own small portion of their lives, of their own part of their universe. Sadly, this is far from true and has been the case for a long time.
Everything is relative, yet it is time for us to take back the reins and start to control our lives.

Hi Susan, I like the humanistic therapy term ‘situated freedom.’ I don’t believe there is any absolute freedom in human life, apart from perhaps monks who live on the hills, but for most of us we are conditioned by and dependent on the society in which we were born. This doesn’t mean we can’t find some degree of freedom within it, hence situated freedom. Blessings S

Agreed Sarah…to a point since I’m unsure if even solitary people have real freedom since we must all exist within our constructs. Constructs which we are never in absolute control of. I do believe however, that we should all have a self determining role in our lives. How we achieve that is for a larger debate 😊 but I think freedom of spirit is a small beginning to apply within our lives.
I hope your Christmas was all you hoped for…it sounded wonderful.
Blessings, Susan 💖
