When I was a kid, I hated that so many people told me what was right/wrong, and how to live my life.
Now I am (somehow) not a kid anymore, and embracing the highest degree of freedom I could dream of, and it comes at a price.
For sure, nobody is behind my back telling me what I should do, and how to do this, or that.
But it also means that I have the responsibility of finding the truth by myself, of doing the right thing by myself.
There is nobody I can talk to and say: “You told me this was the right thing to do.”
This is certainly the right path for me to discover my own truths, walk my own way, and accomplish what I’m here for..
..and it’s also the scariest thing.
I mean it.
Freedom is scary.
That’s why so many people would rather talk about it, and romanticize it, than actually embrace it.
I now see Freedom as a commitment.
It comes as a deal between you and yourself.
And to enjoy the full benefits,
you also have to pay the full price.
