Am I free?

Dream of Freedom by ReyeD33

I Am Free by pepperbunbun A Glimpse of Sky by windfalcon

Do you want to be free?                                         At times the binds of the world are too strong.
Lift your chains,                                             They pull and cut and hold your wings to the earth.
I hold the key,                                  But just as you feel ready to surrender to those biting vines,
All power on Heaven and Earth belong to me.      a sliver of blue pierces through the tangle above.
~ Set Me Free by Casting Crowns  And you find the freedom you were certain you would never have.
~ by ~pepperbunbun                                                      ~ by *windfalcon




What does freedom mean to you?

What is your perception of freedom?

We Choose Not To Be Free by Stepherz-Firefox

A mime stuck in a box.                                                   Freedom is a choice for some,
No freedom.                                                                   for some it is too frightening.

Is what we have really freedom?

Or is it just a perception of one?


The Constitution guarantees freedom of Speech. However, "freedom of speech does not mean freedom from the consequences of that speech. While the language in our Constitution protects our right to say almost anything in public, rulings by the Supreme Court still hold us responsible if our utterances are deemed to have been libel, slander, or caused harm to others."


Am I free to assemble a protest of peaceful peers?

Government: Only with a permit.

Am I free to travel?

Government: Only with a passport (or other I.D. only I can legally provide).

Am I free to pursue my own ideas of happiness?

Government: Only within these constraints.

Am I free to start a business?

Government: Only with a license.

Am I free to marry who I wish?

Government: Only with my consent.

Am I free?

Government: I'm legally obligated to say that you are.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!

Freedom is your God given right as a human being!

Is your freedom being jeopardized?

RISE UP AND PROTEST!
