“I believe that there is a simplicity to our existence that lies in each of us that is lost in social translation.” The basics to life and living are sometimes elusive, difficult to grasp, and hard to hang on to.
Freedom is an ideal that must live within us and be shared by those who also seek it. To understand the complexity of freedom is to know the spectrum that starts with absolute freedom and extends to having one’s life owned and controlled by someone else. Addressing the concept of freedom is to recognize it and those who want to keep it from us. Obtaining freedom first allowed for the creation of our government.
What is freedom? Where does it come from? How do we know what it is? Do we want it? How do we get it? What does it cost? Don’t we all have it? Are we losing it? Why does the quest for freedom cause such worldwide disorder?
Every day we are bombarded with information ‘telling’ us what to think or twisting words and ideas to fit someone or some groups agenda. The old adage of ‘making truth’ by repeating a notion, is actually fundamental to learning. The danger and challenges are to determine and decide what the ingredients for truth really are before making it a part of our belief.
“Freedom is not having the government take care of us or our needs. Freedom is having the ability and responsibility to take care of ourselves.”
This book is about providing the ingredients of freedom allowing the reader to determine his own truth. Mankind has always sought, fought, and died for freedom. The fight goes on every day. Maybe with the wisdom and experience of the ages, we can deal with the threats and make this a better world. I would like to think of this book as a self-help textbook for thought and discussion that can easily be turned to when information becomes convoluted.
I believe that you can help others to think and discuss freedoms framework by making this book available through your donation of books to libraries, schools, colleges, universities, government leaders, friends, family, and organizations driven to keep Americas idealism for freedom.
The attacks on freedom keeps changing but the fundamental requirements remain the same. This book is best in hardcover providing the presence for occasional review and to enhance its value by preventing it from being ‘clicked’ away physically and mentally.
If you choose, the softcover books will be internally labeled for your name as donator and supporter of freedom. Help solidify the ideal of freedom by providing this self-help freedom instigator to others. Thank you for caring even this far.
The book is in print and can be delivered. The risk is time to print with the limitations of on-demand printers. I have limited the offerings in order to meet the quantity/price requirements of this offering. It is also my hope that with your help I can interest a large publisher in order to get national retail distribution.
