"Freedom", Think Are You Free to............

What does this word mean? Is this what we think we have or is this some thing we were used to?Please pause for a second and think for yourself, Are you free to do what you like to, speak your mind act the way you like to, and still be free?

I for one don’t think I am, but are there others in this universe who thinks like me?Does color of your skin, religion or the power wested on you make the difference?Looking back fifty years of my life.

I think I have moved from free world to live in a pseudo world of freedom, a country respecting culture, color, religion, and race.In the past, kings and queens of countries took control of their kingdom; now these so called rulers (politicians) have penetrated the open world and have turned around to rule our life. Its people like me the once who know well what ruling is all about who can see the difference.

Common people who work and care for their family have not yet realized what these so called rulers are getting up to.As a great saint once said communism is the end of religion, and an idiot will be born to bring in an end to human kind.What and how we are slowly conditioned to accept this? And who are we to blame?

The main function of the ruler is to instigate fear. In the past religious organizations did successfully introduce heaven, hell, and God. Now the politicians are taking about terrorists, WMD, and threat of global warming to instigate fear and control.We are conditioning our children to be prisoners in our own comfortable surrounding. They are not free to go anywhere on their own, play and talk to strangers and say things they want to. News about pedophilia, lost children, and violence are mounting fear in us resulting in making our children behave like prisioners.

I am yet to come across a street, shop, or place where you don’t see a camera. Some one is constantly watching you all the time. Driving in the motor way, I felt uncomfortable and started thinking about this camera, bus lanes and parking.

Whose idea was it to start average speed limit of 30 miles? Who and why are we paying car tax and paying to park in the same road where we have paid tax to drive? Who's idea was it to invent bus lanes for empty busses to drive through when we are spending hours burring petrol and polluting the environment?"Freedom of speech", I don't think you are safe if you sympathies if you talk about certain religious group or organization.

To tell you frankly, it’s hard to breathe these days without being fined or locked up in a prison. Fear, fear, and more fear, do we call this freedom?Let us start talking about this so called freedom, I am sure you will start thinking and may be we need to start acting now to bring in changes that free us from the clutches of these rulers ………….
