Freedom is about us being able to let go from our self-limiting ideas, traditions, beliefs, and ways of thinking. Too many of us observe the success of others and shrink from jealousy or envy. Too many of us let society tell us how to love, when to love, and why is important to love. The fact is that as babies we are free, we don’t have these limitations; but as we grow up we become burdened and bitter. Maybe deeply hurt and with lack of self-belief due to our difficult experiences growing up.
I ask you to look into yourself and see your own self-imposed limitations. What are they?? Why are they there?? Who created them in the first place?? Are they helping you grow as a person?? Are they stopping you from selflove and confidence?? That’s what I do with mine, as every day I seek to become a little bit freer than yesterday. See, freedom to fly means freedom to feel self-love and happiness, along with the faith and positivity to claim your place in the world.
Because if we lack this freedom, then we become self-conscious, afraid of moving forward, petrified and intimidated by others and by the challenges in our own lives. So, it’s about seeing yourself for who you are. Perhaps reminding you that, even though you are a grown-up now, you still have the freedom, curiosity, confidence of the baby you were once.
