"Today I know that such memories are the key not to the past, but to the future. I know that the experience of our lives, when we let God use them, become the mysterious and perfect preparation for the work He will give us to do." -The Hidding Place


what is free?
what is freedom?
we live in world
that was not always free.

we still in a world not fully free.
look at your surroundings,
what do you see-
look closely.

we see suffering, pain, grief, hurt, madness, greed, anger, rage.

as wars breaking out.
as we think-
would it lead to wwIII.
what are we looking for?

a cure,
for peace in this world?

we see families getting destroyed.
we see in our own nation,
people losing their job and are struggling.
as prices go up and people becoming poor.

be strong,
stay strong.
here's a question?

where's the compassion, the dignity, the humility!
don't back down, don't give up,
we can make a difference!

I have freedom, but i will be free!
How 'bout you?
