Hello freedom seekers! Get ready for a new freedom challenge!
Spring is coming! I am busy planting a new garden and hoping for abundance this year. That is part of my own personal expression of freedom. I hope you are enjoying your time right now, whatever it is you may be doing in your life :)
If you haven't seen it already I highly recommend reading Freedom Challenge #3 winners and submissions. There is a lot of thought and energy that went into writing these beautiful posts.
Thank you to the participants who made a genuine effort to share deep thoughts and feelings on the subject.
Thank you all who upvoted/commented on these wonderful stories and essays.
OK! Get ready for a new freedom challenge!

Rock on! Glad I caught the challenge early this time, so I can meditate on it, and really feel it out. My first thought with this prompt is: "Wait, but the world is free." And then I realized there are many, many layers of what free can be.
Side note: I've noticed that the majority of our participants in the Steemit Vision Quest ( #svq ) are women too. Wonder why that would be?

We are just the equalizers ;) I dj and learned on vinyl. When you throw the second record you notice if it is going faster or slower. You have to correct in the opposite direction, and you have to over correct to walk the beat back to meet the other. If the record is A LOT faster or slower the initial couple of corrections swing very wildly as you over-correct, then swing back the other way. There is some undulation in calculus like this too, (I'm blanking on the term) where you alternate above and below a point you want to be at until you hone in and you know the answer not by the points on the graph but by what they are dancing closer and closer too. I always picture that undulation when I see social behaviors and reactions. Strong women reactions will be the over correction needed to get us to whatever point we have been dancing around, but we still need everyone to build <3

That's great.. it will be nice to hear your thoughts :) Good point about all the layers! Thanks for the note about the #svg.. it looks very meaningful from my first impression ... I would like to participate at some point in the near future. That's great that womens' voices are being heard in this platform.

Well well there it is... I was wondering if the time for challenge number 4 was coming up!
This one's another tough prompt, but I'm sure once again it will be rewarding (I'm not talking about money).
