The state of liberation. 

Liberated in soul. 

Not bound by others opinions, desires or anything that takes one from their own soul purpose.  

Freedom does not step or squash on another’s ability to follow their own path, it welcomes diversity. 

Freedom is expansive and explosive. 

It creates space and it’s energy is light that flickers to all in goodness, grace and generosity.  

Freedom is both a right and a privilege. 

The Soul Inhabits the Body

All are born free. Some experience bondage in the physical realm or by the conditioning of the mind.  Even in physical bondage the soul is free, it is the mind that captures and keeps one bound.  The great privilege of a body allows the soul to have many experiences. Some pleasant, some not, but as one recognizes the soul as eternal and the body as a transporter, then experiences become just that: an experience. Experiences have the ability to transform the self that inhabits the body. The self is the ego part of the experience.  Remember the soul inhabits the body, it is eternal wise, rational, and free.  

Embrace This

To know true freedom is to embrace the fact that each of of us is self and soul.  Each of us have the privilege of a life for but a brief period of time.  With respect to that privilege, acknowledge the right for each life to follow their path.  Understand some people haven’t connected their self and soul and thus experience confusion and fear.  Sincere words from you may or may not mean anything to them, but unconditional love reaches all. 

Focus Your Attention Here – the Building Up

Love is energy, it has the ability to move and flow beyond space and time.  If you embrace this, then use that powerful ability to affect those in this world with the energy of unconditional love.  Focus your intention for the building up, not the current climate of confusion and fear.  Freedom does not live there.  Freedom lives in love. Much love to you and may you be free my friend and offer much unconditional love, Julia.
