Motorcycle Travel Series by @velimir 'Freedom and Love' (Part #194)

The "Labyrinth of Freedom" is laid in front of me. The sign says that walking through this energy field will increase precision, leadership, logic, freedom, intelligence, discretion, and fortitude. It will also decrease uneasiness, restlessness, panic, destructiveness, fear, morbidity and poisonousness of mind and spirit. Honestly, these concepts seem to be completely babbled out. What logic, intelligence, precision, discretion, leadership, panic and morbidity have to do with freedom?

Do I need to walk through this one? Who doesn't want to be free? What makes me reluctant is the speculation that 'freedom' is the next most misused word after 'love'. Throughout human history, too many people died for the deceiving ideal of 'freedom', without even understanding what it means. One could exactly say the same about 'love'. Both of these words are meant to support life, not death but there are so many examples of the contrary.

The concept of freedom is a false, unreachable ideal. Nobody is truly free in this realm of mind and matter. Wars are fought over the non-existing ideals, freedom being a quite often used motive. People die in the name of freedom only for to replace a few hundred people on top with another few hundred who are soon to become the same or even worse than the previous lot. This constant perpetual change, without the real change, allows nobody to really be free.

See how easily I pointed out a completely different meaning of the freedom than the one that author of the labyrinth intended to convey? That's how tricky freedom is. The freedom he had in mind is the only truly achievable one. It is the freedom in one's own mind, one's own emotions and one's own deeds. This is what we can control. Some of us, most of the times. :-D

From my experience the calmer we are and more working together with the world, rather than against it, the more control we have over ourselves. Also, let's not forget to add 'love' to this equation. Love in sense of loving life and loving the love itself, rather than possessively going crazy for another person which is probably just as lost in the same maze as we are. But, then again, that is also a form of love.

Join me for a walk through the labyrinth of freedom, now. Let's find out what is there for us. I have no need to walk through "Labyrinth of power" at the opposite side.

Enjoy the New Year's Eve and may you have all the freedom and love waiting for you out there!
See how tricky they both are? :D

Enjoy your day! :-)
