"If God didn't want the leaves to be on the ground, he wouldn't have made them to fall from the tree"
Oh, God, where have we gone wrong? We are teaching that love wins, love conquers all.. and we have no idea what true love is.
Love is the force. Love is the movement. We can't tweak it or mold it to our liking. We have to merge with it. Anything other than following love is a departure from love. It is a whole different force and in contest with true love.
Do not force love.
Artifice.

Part 2 - Space
Freedom is expensive. The desire for freedom is.. all encompassing.
Most people want freedom from oppression, oppression which comes in as many forms as necessary. But at the root of the desire for freedom is what freedom really involves: the ability to live life as you see fit, without recourse.
America was started because a bunch of people wanted freedom. Braveheart's iconic line, "...they may take our lives, but they will never take our freedom!"
We seek the space to learn who we are. And experience who we are. And live who we are.
Space exceeds definition. Who we are exceeds definition. And how we want to live, we want to live it free of definition. Free from judgement and oppression. The freedom to express ourselves fully, without the requirement of getting it right the first time or having our actions be finite.
We are so trapped. Our 'freedoms' are cages. We crave true freedom.

Part 1: Non-constant
Context: modern America.
The desire for constants is.. hairy at best. Looking at the political side of America, most people want someone that is constant. Someone that doesn't have wishy-washy feelings about, potentially, important issues. Most people want someone that can back their position with years of documentation. If a public servant or representative has flippant tenancies, he or she is demonized as indecisive or even being bribed.
I am succumb to supposition.
Most people want fluidity, honestly. How mundane is monotony?
Just not in government.
But what about in relationships? Do we crave a solid, everlasting relationship with people? A never-changing status of positive or negative?
Humans are not meant to be static.
Our relationships are not meant to be static.
There are too many examples in nature that support fluidity, change, adaption, evolution, etc..
Is the concept of an anchor in reality simply a manifestation of fear and worry?
I admit to being fundamentally prone to anxiety. Its is, at times, physically debilitating.
And for what? Fear of losing control? Fear of not knowing what might happen in the future? Fear of taking risks, of failure?
Damn right.
Right or wrong, it is in my core to worry. And I seek to make this change.
