I am physically confined in a concrete cell eight feet by ten feet, and yet I am just as “free” as anyone else.
I'm not just telling myself that I am free in order to escape my imprisonment through denial. In fact, I don't believe I am “free” at all. And that's my point; nobody is!
Can you walk on the sun, or even the moon for that matter? Of course not. And neither can I. So we are not free.
But wait, this is no mere word play with exaggeration. This is a serious restriction on our freedom! We do not recognize the seriousness of it because we just accept it. But we don't have to accept it at all!
We were meant to be truly free! And if we don't demand our freedom from the universe then we make ourselves slaves to it.
Demand to be free! And don't stop until you are.
