Guess What, Freedom and Liberty are Difficult and Come with No Guarantees..

I think freedom and liberty have become too hard for most people. It has just become to hard. Free people have to make decisions that actually come with benefits and consequences. Free people have to accept that other people are doing to make different choices, and that's ok. Freedom also means taking responsibility for your own life. It means you are responsible for making your goals, finding ways to achieve them, and persevering to the end. It also means once you finish that goal, you make other goals. The hardest part of liberty is the fact it comes with no guarantees. No, you might not get the job you wanted. No, you might not get into the school you wanted. Yes, you might have to take a job you don't like so you can earn a living until you can find a job you do like... yes, that sometimes means sacrificing your own time to get trained, educated or job hunt. Yes, that means you might have to work evenings or nights to free up your days to job hunt The most frustrating part of freedom is that you have to put up with the effect other people's decisions have on your life. Free people don't live in a bubble. so life gets complicated. The childish and freedom hating alternative is to sit around whining for the government to take care of you. If that is what you want, then you don't deserve anything good in your life. You want to be owned by the government, enjoy the slavery you demand, but leave the rest of us out of it. Prison would be good for you, since it is everything you want life to be anyway.
