For me, freedom is loving myself, freedom is having the right to speak what I want, write what I feel for and roam where ever my heart asks for.
The soul when free is at its creative best. The divine soul is meant to reside in the human body and not to be jailed.
Perform your worldly duties well, don't shove off from the responsibilities you are shouldered on but let your soul also breathe, feed it with the food of music/books/gardening (food for my soul) or whatever it craves for.
If you don't know yourself, what it asks for; take out time for yourself, love yourself.
Begin and end your day loving yourself. Live for yourself with all the other things you do in this world.
Close your eyes, listen to the sounds of Nature: the chirping of birds, the musical notes of the cuckoo bird, feel the breeze brushing your face with freshness.
Love and act what you loved doing once, act and find love in something new. It will give you immense happiness, bliss, charge the batteries of your life with positivism.
Don't wait for anyone to come and console or cajole or motivate you.
Start loving yourself now because it's better late than never.
Love yourself and spread the love.
