“I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.” ~ Madonna

FREEDOM, letting go of darkness, tapping in and turning on to the positive as absorb the light. This is how I find my I-Deal Weight. TOWANDA!!!

Take some time this Fourth of July to celebrate and acknowledge your own personal independence, as well as your own right to Life (on your own terms) Liberty (however you envision your personal liberation) and the Pursuit of Happiness (as you individually and truly feel Happiness). (my friend Christina)

Busy weekend visiting with friends and family. We are experiencing temps over 100 that shall continue through Wednesday they say. Hard to keep your cool when your hot. I hope all is well with my F.S. buddies:)

Quotes on Freedom:

The patriot's blood is the seed of Freedom's tree. ~Thomas Campbell


Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide. ~Napoleon Bonaparte


Here is my advice as we begin the century that will lead to 2081. First, guard the freedom of ideas at all costs. Be alert that dictators have always played on the natural human tendency to blame others and to oversimplify. And don't regard yourself as a guardian of freedom unless you respect and preserve the rights of people you disagree with to free, public, unhampered expression. ~Gerard K. O'Neill, 2081


Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. ~Abraham Lincoln


I wish that every human life might be pure transparent freedom. ~Simone de Beauvoir


My definition of a free society is a society where it is safe to be unpopular. ~Adlai Stevenson, speech, Detroit, 1952


It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you. ~Author unknown, sometimes attributed to M. Grundler


We on this continent should never forget that men first crossed the Atlantic not to find soil for their ploughs but to secure liberty for their souls. ~Robert J. McCracken


You have freedom when you're easy in your harness. ~Robert Frost


For what avail the plough or sail, or land or life, if freedom fail? ~Ralph Waldo Emerson


Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it. ~Thomas Paine


In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt


We have to call it "freedom": who'd want to die for "a lesser tyranny"? ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960


Freedom is the oxygen of the soul. ~Moshe Dayan


There are two freedoms - the false, where a man is free to do what he likes; the true, where he is free to do what he ought. ~Charles Kingsley
