For I must be travelling on, now 'cause there's too many places I've got to see…
I mean, what is true freedom? Is anyone ever as ‘Free as a Bird?’ Have you ever felt totally liberated?
I meet many people that feel trapped. Trapped by addiction, relationships or career. In other words booze, people or work - or a combination of all three. Having been in that situation myself I know how hard it can be to break the cycle of depression that accompanies the feeling of entrapment. But it can be done…
However you look at it, it comes down to a matter of choice. It sounds harsh, but if you are seeking true freedom from any entrapment - you have a choice, either to become a victim to the situation or change your attitude and direction. I mean if you’ve failed time and time again, why try the same approach - try something different.
Maybe have a ‘Time Out’… it could change your whole life.
It could be a moment, it could be a day, it could be a month - the beauty is, you decide how long. Have a really good long think about things. Talk it through with someone you trust and think about the future as there’s a bright one out there waiitng for you. And the best part is - you choose!
And if you don’t like booze, your relationship or your job - make some choices that bring you the freedom you desire.
And take your time, as feeling as ‘Free as a Bird’ awaits. You just have to have faith.
Amen.
