Over The Rainbow

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Sadly, it seems some have tried to define freedom, so we all subscribe to that boxed definition, or to whatever we now define. Others and we have adopted and now live “definitions” of freedom, and now defend the delusion as if it is actual. In that alone, none of us will be free, just to an illusion we hold dear.

Equally as sad, others believe freedom is somewhere else, in America, or over the rainbow perhaps. Freedom is not achieved through anyone else, not by government, not via guns, nowhere but from within. We have spent our entirety seeking freedom through judgment, both theirs and ours, yet it is as elusive today as ever before. Here’s where some of you will want to argue. Freedom is not something you do, or achieve. You cannot fight for and win freedom, nor kill or conquer to be free. What those, perhaps you battle in your quests, are crafted illusions that you have made your delusion.

We have condemned, judged, incarcerated, and killed those we see as evil, yet we never look where evil resides. Darkness and sin are not in the government, nor those across the globe. Evil only exists within us, in you, or me, and that is the place we will not look. Even if Christ was here, the only place he could resolve evil, would be himself. That battle requires you to battle you, for you. No one else is involved, for no one else is responsible. Them, they and those, they, each and all must let go of the dark tethers that bind them. This, you and I, we all must do - we must let go of our evil.

Who makes up the government? We do, us. Who makes up armies? We do, again, us. Who makes up societies, churches, bars, prisons and who makes up the self-righteous? Us, we do.

We, who chase evil over there, in them or they, only need look within, for there is where evil resides, and is only where one will resolve the difference between good and evil, and themselves and God. In our resolution of darkness, it is you or I who paint our portraits, and our world’s mural. If there is a doingness, it is a confronting of you, or me, and an accepting and being responsible for who and what we are and have done, and then, letting go. The war we must fight, the only one we can win, is our choosing what we want to be, and not be. Again, To Be, or Not Be - The question and the Answer.
