What are we fighting for in this life?
In this country we fight for our freedom and for the freedom of choice, but more importantly we fight for love.
The fight for love: the journey we take to find the strength within to love ourselves and those positive in our life. We fight to find our soul mate and find the One above. Everything else in this life is “merely external” (Matisyahu, Warrior).
The responsibilities forced upon in this society are the price of freedom in the U.S. But at what cost?
We work to live, but we should not live to work and that is what we do.
More value is put on money than true happiness, because our ideologies are materialistic–we mistake money for happiness. It is not. Having money makes this life easier, but is not the decider of happiness, we are. This is the struggle.
We struggle with this concept day in, day out and what are the results? Stress, anxiety, anger, and frustration all contributing to the negative vices of life-drinking, smoking, drugs.
These vices, these negative actions are socially accepted as pleasures. Vices are society’s way of accepting the need for escape, escape from all pressures listed above.
Love your loved ones. Reunite your soul. Find your salvation. Life is too beautiful to escape.
