Freedom


For me, freedom is...

  1. Not having to do any drugs for mental stimulation or recreation.
  2. Being able to leave my house whenever I want. 
  3. Not having to do anything I do not want to. 
  4. Choosing the people I want to be around. 
  5. Being able to write whatever I want. 
  6. Not having to have a drink today. 
  7. Privilege to own any books I like. 
  8. Having a variety of foods to eat. 
  9. Having everything I need. 
  10. Having more than I need. 
  11. Having my own money. 
  12. Going out with friends. 
  13. Going to visit friends. 
  14. Wearing makeup. 
  15. Exercising. 
  16. Learning. 
  17. Dancing. 
  18. Walking. 
  19. Talking. 
  20. Loving. 

Sometimes it may seem like slow going but keep on working toward whatever you are working on. Today is a good day to renew goals, affirm dreams, and reestablish footing on the trait. Be grateful for the little things.
