Liberation

Freedom is the ability to choose. Acceptance of what is is an expression of freedom. We are free to accept what is. The primary what is I am referring to is what I am experiencing. What I am experiencing is me, and in accepting what I am experiencing I accept what is, and I am free. There are times I have felt fully reconciled with whatever was happening, felt in harmony with what was happening, felt on top of the world, felt like I was walking a foot off the ground. Such times haven't lasted long as I bog myself down in circumstances of life, not going with the flow and not accepting what is or what I am experiencing. What helps me accept what is is knowing I'm alive only in what I am experiencing in the present, and the more I accept my present rather than fight it or try to control it the more alive I am.
